Rebecca Denny explaining one of the methods we use for evaluation at TCS.
Off to London today to run a workshop with the wonderful gang at SPEAR London with Sarah Jenkins We we working with their Health Link case workers to evaluate the support they provide to hundreds of homeless and vulnerable housed adults in Richmond and Twickenham. One of the things we are looking at is Value for Investment - our methodology is based on Julian King ‘s model - determining how well resources are used in the programme as well as the wider benefit to those it exists to support and programme partners. Here for example we want to consider the impact of reduced a&e admissions vs increased support from GPs. Always good to uncover some meaningful findings both which corroborate and challenge a programme - meaning future decisions can be made with true insight. #valueforinvestment #VfI #costbenefit #evaluation #charityimpact #impactmeasurement

The team spent a few days working together in person this week. We love the flexibility that comes with remote working but it's always fun to spend sometime together too. We were joined by the lovely Emily from The Henley Coaching Partnership for a session on our DISC profiles. It was so interesting to learn about each of our communication styles and how we can use them to benefit us as a team. Highly recommend.

Beckie has been chatting about what the biggest challenge is that we face at The Charity Spark. Working in fundraising isn't easy by any means and even as professionals in the field there are challenges. #thecharityspark #fundraising #charityfundraising

Ever find yourself wondering what we do at TCS and how we can help? ✨ Evaluation: we offer independent evaluation which can support your organisation’s strategic development as well as providing the insight of a ‘critical friend’. These evaluations are also helpful for funder reporting and impact reports. ✨ Fundraising: The Charity Spark can help with one-off Fundraising support, organisational Fundraising strategy, or bid-writing and team training. We can support you in developing effective and valuable partnerships with donors, identifying where investment is required and set up the right funding solution for your organisation. ✨ Strategy: sometimes you need a sounding board who can bring wisdom, experience and independence to your strategy development. We help you to find the right insight to develop strategy which works: whether you need to develop an organisation wide strategy or are bringing about change in a specific area, let us play the role of critical friend to support you in sparking meaningful effective change.

An interesting read from a funder about their views on using AI in grant applications. We wrote about this subject recently too: https://lnkd.in/esguk2yS
"Can we use AI for our funding applications?" 🤔 We are seeing an increase in AI-generated applications, and in many cases, this isn't giving #SmallButVital charities the best chance of success. We understand that AI tools can help charities save time on writing applications and we support charities using these technologies. Here are some tips when sending us your applications: ❌ Don't rely on AI to fully respond to questions: We want to hear your unique voice and the strengths of your charity ❌Protect your data and be careful when adding confidential or sensitive information into free AI open source software. ✅Do use it to support you in writing a first draft ✅Supporting you to format and spell check your application
