Social Value Lab has worked with Regional Screen Scotland to produce a new online ‘toolkit’ to help local cinemas across the UK to make the case for how much they matter to their communities, by measuring and understanding their social impacts.
Creative and arts based approaches can be particularly powerful, especially at the data collection and dissemination phases of the evaluation cycle.
Support for third sector organisations to develop capacity for evaluation from Paul Hamlyn Foundation.
This toolkit has been created for the Family Arts Campaign by Catherine Rose’s Office, for use by organisations participating in the Get Creative Family Arts Festival. It provides guidance, information and ideas on evaluating your Festival events and researching your audiences
This toolkit for cinemas points to the information that you need to know to determine whether you have screened your films successfully, attracted intended audiences, and made a difference to the people that attend as well as your wider community and economy.
UNV coordinates International Volunteer Day on 5 December every year to recognize and promote the tireless work, not just of UN Volunteers, but of volunteers across the globe. Every day, volunteers dedicate time and effort to ensure the inclusion of those often left behind, drive climate action and advance the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Hundreds of community cinemas across the UK are volunteer-run, with people bringing their love of cinema and the audience experience to life in their communities. There are also many other independent venues that simply would not be able to provide the special and personal experiences they do without the support of volunteers. Thanks to all these brilliant people!
Volunteers’ Week takes place in June every year, this week it runs from 3rd – 9th June. It’s a chance to say thank you for the contribution millions of volunteers make across the UK to support our communities.
The Week is open to anyone to take part – this can include carrying out an act of kindness, doing some volunteering or contributing to discussion. Find more information here.
The week is led in partnership by NCVO, Volunteer Scotland, Volunteer Now (Northern Ireland) and Wales Council for Voluntary Action and supported by organisations across the UK.
