Providing Evidence and Research for Your Work
Having the right evidence will help you to demonstrate the need for your service and identify the specifics that are needed to build a case to support your work.
Gathering the appropriate research and statistics will also help you to plan what you do (for instance where you need to target your services) and help funders (and anyone else) to see that their money would be well spent if they invest in you.
This page provides a bank of resources to support groups in Salford when looking for information, hard data and statistics to build a proposal, funding bid or tender. This page also highlights resources you can call on from students and academics to evaluate your work or help build the evidence you need.

Voluntary and Community groups and Social Enterprises have a wealth of knowledge and skill in providing evidence for the work they do. You are invited to share information, resources, research and data relevant to needs and to further develop this resource.
