Assessing the impact of the work of Rural Community Councils
Malcolm Moseley and Stephen Owen, working with colleagues from the University of Hull, developed a practical tool for Rural Community Councils to enable them to assess and articulate the impact of their work.
The research arose from a growing appreciation that voluntary organizations such as the RCCs need to demonstrate more clearly the ultimate outcomes of the work they undertake. The project, which took place in 2005, was commissioned by Defra and led to the publication of the monograph entitled ‘Rural Community Value’.
