New client: We Invented the Weekend

The Evaluator is delighted to be working with a new client, We Invented the Weekend. You can see more about them on this link. 

We Invented the Weekend is ‘The festival of free time’ and we are looking forward to working together at this high profile and exciting event. The festival is taking place on Saturday 15 & Sunday 16 June and is happening at Media City and Salford Quays. There is an amazing line up including live music, family fun, wellness workshops and sports activities – all for free!

Thousands of people will be making their way there, and we’ll be on hand during the festival with a team of volunteers to understand their experiences. This will include audience profiles, demographic segmentation, economic impact, quality of experience and more. We will be providing a full festival evaluation.

Recent Workshop Feedback

In December 2023, The Evaluator worked with Pendle Borough Council to revitalize their Creativity and Cultural Strategy. We pulled together data across various themes and subsequently organised and conducted two workshops. These sessions played a pivotal role in refining existing concepts and co-creating an effective action plan for strategy implementation.

Kerry, representing Pendle Council, had this to say, “It is really wonderful working with Kirsty. Her understanding and approach really worked for our group, and the sessions were focussed but flexible enough to let some great conversations emerge. It has been valuable for everyone involved.”

Cheers to a Festive Break: Wrapping Up a Year of Amazing Projects!

As the year draws to a close, we reflect on how grateful we are to work with such outstanding clients, providing evaluation and data analysis services throughout the year. It has been our pleasure to have been involved in some of the world-changing positive projects our clients have been working on.

In the spirit of the festive season, the Evaluator team will be taking a break to refresh and recharge during Christmas. Therefore, we would like to inform you that our office will be closed for the holiday period starting from the 22nd of December and will resume operations on the 8th of January.

We appreciate your understanding, and we assure you that we will return in the new year fully revitalised and ready to continue delivering our exceptional service.

 

Below are some of the clients we’ve had the pleasure of working with this year:

 

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

New Client: Love Withington Baths

The Evaluator is delighted to be working with a new client, Love Withington Baths.

The Evaluator is working with the community leisure centre to carry out a Social Return On Investment (SROI). You can read our blog post all about SROI here, but it’s basically a formal process of identifying what matters to people taking part, starting with the changes they identify. We are looking forward to chatting away to people using the centre, and figuring out what changes it has led to in people’s lives. It’s a really well used centre, so we should get to talk to lots of people!
