Example Projects - meta, macro, micro

National Lottery Heritage Fund

Royal Pavilion Estate, Brighton

Anna and Associates were commissioned by the National Lottery Heritage Fund to review heritage grant evaluations submitted under their last strategic framework.

Our meta evaluation measured how funding across 60 projects had delivered the Heritage Fund's outcomes, and the quality of reporting that the Heritage Fund receives.

The report included a detailed set of recommendations for the Heritage Fund to consider as they transition into their latest Strategic Framework

Royal Pavilion Estate, Brighton

The Royal Pavilion Estate is undertaking an ambitious masterplan, which begins with a multi-million pound restoration of Brighton Dome's Corn Exchange.

Our evaluation framework provides monitoring and outcomes measurement across a complex programme of capital, community engagement and business activities. Formative evaluation, through interim reporting and regular workshops, is providing support to the team as they progress their plans over the coming years

Thamesmead Now!

Royal Pavilion Estate, Brighton

Thamesmead Now!

The Peabody Trust's Thamesmead Now! project created a new archive for Thamesmead. The archive includes crowd-sourced materials and works produced by creative projects, including an artist in residency 'Thamesmead Texas'.

The evaluation measured the value of focused public engagement with some of the diverse communities living in Thamesmead, whose stories are now beginning to be told and shared.

What our clients say...

Your evaluation approach was a very important part of the project's success, significantly boosting its ability to develop/adapt in order to become more effective at what it was trying to do. Thanks so much for that. I wish all HLF projects could benefit from your method and your expertise. It was great to work with you, and we all really appreciated your input and insights, and your spirit.

The expertise and guidance Anna and Pam have provided to this complex heritage project is second to none and the support they have given me as Project Manager in guiding me through the various challenges and issues in managing World War II heritage has been incredibly helpful. They have consistently delivered valuable and highly detailed evaluation.
