Empowering Places: The programme model and emerging impact

O'Flynn, Lily, Jones, Naomi, Meghjee, Waseem and Thornton, Alice (2021) Empowering Places: The programme model and emerging impact. Evaluation Report. Power to Change.

Abstract

The Empowering Places programme funds locally rooted ‘catalyst’ organisations in six places, over five years to empower communities to develop community businesses. Through the development of new community businesses, the programme aims to provide benefits and opportunities to local people and create more resilient places.

The programme, delivered by Co-operatives UK, resources catalysts with grant funding, money to award seed grants, access to an expert ‘tech lead’ from Centre for Local Economic Strategies or The New Economics Foundation, and access to specialist tailored support from an approved pool of providers.

Over nearly two years, the evaluation has collected data to understand the approaches of catalysts, within the context they operate, as well as the emerging impact of the programme.
