Every year the Community Insights team works one-to-one with local groups to provide support with data-related projects. Every project is different – we help you decide what’s going to be most useful for your organisation to focus on. The diagram provided gives an overview of some of the areas we can support you with including:
Working with you on your data foundations – clarifying the impact you are trying to make, what’s the most useful data to collect/track linked to this and effective ways to report on your impact to funders and stakeholders;
Developing customised data dashboards – visualising your service delivery data, to provide accessible insights to enhance operations, or to track progress on outcomes;
Finding the best tools for data collection and collation – whether it’s the basics of well-structured spreadsheets, google forms, a CRM or other systems for getting the most out of your data;
Templates and tips for data protection, use and security;
Creating tailored infographics on relevant up-to-date data linked to your field of practice
Reviewing questionnaires and surveys to ensure your tools will work well with the people you’re seeking information from.
