Evaluation of the Building Change Trust: Year 1 Interim Evaluation Report (PDF, 1MB) 9/2/2011 The Building Change Trust will invest £10 million over 10 years to help community groups and larger voluntary organisations adapt and develop new ways of working. There is a single grant of £10m given as an endowment, expendable over ten years between 2008 and 2018. This means that the grant must be reinvested to produce an income and all the capital and income must be committed by 2018. Big Lottery Funds aim for the Building Change Trust, and for the work it supports, is to build the capacity of the Voluntary and Community Sector by equipping it to meet the changing needs of Northern Ireland communities. The Trust will not make grants in a traditional way, but will look at what resources already exist in communities and identify ways to support communities to develop and change. ‘Measuring Success’ event (PDF, 100kB) 5/1/2011 BIG’s Community Libraries ‘Measuring Success’ event Capacity building through the Developing Communities Scotland programme – evaluation summary (PDF, 309kB) 22/9/2010 Capacity building through the Developing Communities Scotland programme – evaluation summary Page first Previous 1... 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...42 Next first
