The Social Process of Supporting Small Charities: An Evaluation of the Lloyds Bank Foundation Grow Pilot Programme

This independent evaluation examines the support delivered by Lloyds Bank Foundation to ten small charities with a turnover of less than £75,000 across areas of high deprivation in Redcar ad Cleveland and Neath Port Talbot. This support aimed to help build capacity through business planning, marketing, fundraising, service evaluation and volunteer development.

The two-year pilot programme was evaluated by an independent academic, Professor Tony Chapman of the University of Durham. The resulting report presents the impact of the support delivered over the pilot.
