Inclusive Evaluation and Magic Moments

From individuals with good ideas and tiny community groups to big services and policy systems, we support anyone wanting to create positive, practical solutions to shared challenges.

Evaluations can be simple, meaningful, and empowering. They are a good way to show the difference your work is making and the impact for communities and people. They don’t always need to be about numbers and statistics or be difficult or complicated to complete.

Evaluation can be much more interactive, too often we can rely only on quantitative data to learn from our work. But numbers can never tell the whole story, sometimes one short story can make a big difference.

Magic Moments is an evaluation tool we use to collect, organise and share key moments that reflect participants’ views and  experiences, and observations from evaluation activities. We use it to highlight small but significant changes in people’s lives in a way that is easily recognised and understood by a range of audiences.

Our new Inclusive Evaluation and Magic Moments resource details our approach and previous experience. We offer bespoke independent evaluations developed to meet the scope of the work and your budget.
