Resilient Heritage evaluation

See all updates

Projects may include:

  • activities that focus on new responsibility for heritage
  • reviewing current business models and implementing change
  • explore alternative funding streams or reviewing and setting up new governance arrangements

The evaluation began in January 2018 and will run until December 2019. 

The first report, from mid-2018, found that:

  • a number of organisations who used the Strengths Checker found it useful when developing their application
  • others found it useful for identifying areas for improvement
  • of those who received a grant, 90% of those surveyed said their organisation is better managed or expect it to be once the grant has ended
  • 90% said that skills have been developed amongst staff, trustees, and volunteers as a result of their grant

The evaluation will continue until December 2019, with an interim report in spring 2019 and a final report at the end of 2019.
