Research and evaluation that involves social situations and human behaviour is complex. We help organisations to understand the complexity in which they exist and use insight to support the promotion of physical activity within their sector.

Research types

  • Evaluation
  • Complex system evaluation
  • Research and insight
  • Consultancy

Evaluation: We work collaboratively with partners to understand what is really needed from an evaluation. Traditional metrics are important but we seek to get underneath the numbers to understand the how and why through application of qualitative methods.

Complex system evaluation: We work as an embedded independent evaluator on complex system change projects to capture the narrative of the process, explore co-existing perspectives and agenda of partners, and provide a bird’s eye of progress. Near real time feedback of provides a unique opportunity for projects to explore the challenges of collaborative working and adapt to improve relationships and outcomes.

Research and insight: We work with partners to answer specific research questions they may have. Using qualitative methods, we seek to deliver rich insight into a topic of interest to help organisations develop their strategies and achieve their goals.

Consultancy: We are championing a modern approach to evaluation and are passionate about shared learning. We welcome the opportunity talk others about what we have learnt through our evaluation and research, and learn from their experience. We believe that sharing experiences is vital for building a more physically active future.
