Voices: Helene Rodger (Passion4Fusion)

In our Voices series, we spotlight the stories and insights of the incredible organisations we support - those driving real change in the fight against poverty and trauma in Scotland. The latest group is Passion4Fusion, an organisation supporting ethnically diverse young people and their families in Edinburgh and the Lothians.

Evolving our Impact and Insights Framework

Over the past year, our Impact and Insights Framework has helped us better understand the difference we're making, learn alongside our grant holders and partners, and use evidence to inform our decisions. In this blog, Cassy Rutherford reflects on what we've learned so far, why we've adapted our approach, and what to expect from the next phase of our impact and insights work.
