Impact Measurement & Evaluation
Creating positive social and environmental impact is only part of the story
Understanding, evidencing and communicating that change is where Firstimpact can help.
We provide independent evaluation services for charities, social enterprises, community organisations, public sector bodies and purpose-led projects. Using robust research methods and meaningful stakeholder engagement, we help organisations measure outcomes, demonstrate impact and generate evidence that funders, commissioners, stakeholders and beneficiaries can trust.
Our approach goes beyond data collection; we put people at the heart of the evaluation process. Through interviews, focus groups, surveys and participatory research, we capture the experiences and perspectives of those most affected by a programme or service, ensuring the evidence reflects real-world impact.
Whether you're tackling poverty, improving wellbeing, strengthening communities, advancing inclusion, creating environmental benefits or driving social change, we can help you understand what works, what can be improved and the difference you're making.
As part of the Firstport Group, we bring experience delivering research and evaluation projects across a range of social impact initiatives, including investigating barriers to investment for ethnic minority entrepreneurs and evaluating business support programmes for social enterprises.
From programme evaluations and impact reports to theory of change development and learning frameworks, we deliver clear, credible and accessible evidence that helps organisations:
Demonstrate impact and accountability
Strengthen funding and commissioning bids
Improve services and outcomes
Inform strategy and future decision-making
Communicate value with confidence
