Learn about: monitoring and reporting on your project for your small community group (Edgbaston)

Who is this event for?

For those running or growing a small community or voluntary group in Birmingham.

About this event

This learning session is for you if you are running a small voluntary group in Edgbaston and would like to boost your monitoring and reporting skills.

This event is taking place at Edgbaston Community Centre on Wednesday 13 November from 10.30am to 2.30pm.

This event is being run by Birmingham Community Matters (BCM) on behalf of Edgbaston Neighbourhood Network Scheme.

Together we’ll look at ways you can reflect on and record the success of your community project, exploring:

  • Ideas for collecting outcomes information
  • Methods of measuring impact and creating an action plan
  • Financial reporting
  • Example methods of collecting monitoring information – such as case studies, surveys, and informal feedback.

Monitoring and reporting may not sound like the biggest fun (especially not compared to actually planning and holding community activities) but it’s vital you feed outcomes and other results back to your funders. It’s also helpful for your team, your volunteers and other people you work with to collect and share the impact you are collectively having; to celebrate and learn from your successes. And, if you have some simple tricks to gather all this data, we think you’ll find the process much easier and more enjoyable.

As with all of our events, we will keep this one light, informal and friendly!

How to register:

  • Register here on Ticket Tailor – we’ll ask you a few simple questions about your community group/project/idea so we know how to best support you on the day.
  • If closer to the time you cannot attend please email us at info@birminghamcommunitymatters.org.uk to let us know. This will allow us to allocate your place to someone else.
