Big Local Research
Big Local is a long-term programme running for at least ten years, supporting communities in up to 150 selected areas, to make where they live an even better place now and in the future. Big Local areas are working to four key outcomes which are:
- Communities will be better able to identify local needs and take action in response to them
- People will have increased skills and confidence so that they can continue to identify and respond to local needs in future
- The community will make a difference to the needs it prioritises
- People will feel that their area is an even better place to live.
CDF’s research team are part of the Big Local learning team who aim to support Local Trust in:
- ensuring that the learning from the Big Local areas is identified and shared to assist Local Trust in developing and the areas in achieving their local vision.
- establishing local area monitoring systems
- providing self-evaluation support
- coordinating data collected across the delivery partners
- supporting analysis of progress and outcomes from Big Local.
