Once your asset is up and running, it’s important to consider how you will monitor and evaluate the activities you deliver to demonstrate the contribution and impact your organisation has on your local community.
This means clearly linking sport or physical activity to a range of social, economic, environmental and health outcomes. Measuring your impact can help you to:
- evidence your success and the impact you’re having
- provide evidence to financial backers and supporters that the project is meeting its aims and objectives
- support any future funding applications or investment opportunities
- develop your offer and respond to local need
- celebrate and shout about your success
- meet any requirements of funders who have supported your project.
