Final words from @janeculling.bsky.social "important to learn from what works and what doesn't work - capture all learning" "find ways to evidence impact in a way that engages policy makers" Wise words to end the @vssn1.bsky.social event. It's a wrap

More from Adam Lane, 'civil society is the glue that binds us together. It's needed for community cohesion and influencing policy makers' Civil Society needs to be brave in what we do and what we say. Wise words @vssn1.bsky.social event here @uofglasgow.bsky.social #impact #democracy #volunteering

Hearing from Adam Lane @carnegieuk.bsky.social with the big question 'how can civil society help address the shared challenges across the UK'. Aim to put wellbeing at the heart of decision making. @vssn1.bsky.social

So true @garywalshco.bsky.social evaluation is about impact and benefit. It's about the difference being made. Incorporate evaluation and learning into service delivery and involve the people being supported. Great advice @vssn1.bsky.social event @glasgowunisrc.bsky.social
