We believe evaluation should be accessible - empowering people to demonstrate the value and outcomes of what they do
We bring people together, with different perspectives, to explore ideas, spark innovation and make change happen.

Our Story
“In 2020, we were asked to conduct an evaluation of the Organisations response to COVID 19. Working closely with our partners at RREAL, UCL we learnt Rapid Evaluation methodology. These methods were transformative and allowed us to deliver evaluation at pace, keeping up with the fast-moving health, social and community settings - we were able to make real-time recommendations. The methods were so accessible that not only did we engage a huge number of people in our work, we left a legacy of evaluation capability. We realised that there was a different way of doing things, that we could de-mystify evaluations making it easy for people to demonstrate the impact of their work”
