CIU Annual Conference 2009

Are We Really Making An Impact?

In the midst of a recession, with funding even tighter than usual and greater demands on the services provided by in independent voluntary and community sector organisations in east London, it has never been more important to plan, prioritise and influence funders to support projects that make a genuine impact on the lives of local people.

• But who decides what makes the most significant impact? Our users, our management committee or our funders? How are these judgements made?
• Are we accountable enough to the people who we support?
• How do we balance immediate and short-term needs with our wider expertise of long-term impact?
• And do we always collect and present  the real impact of our work in a way that can help secure new funding?

The aim of the conference is to provide an opportunity to step back and discuss why thinking about the impact we make matters.

It is aimed at staff, management committee members, trustees and volunteers of independent voluntary and community sector organisations in east London and officers of statutory organisations who work with the independent non-profit sector
