Book your place for the Let’s Evaluate Peer Support Roadshow 2026!
How do we know if peer support is making a difference? If you’re looking for meaningful, practical ways to evaluate, this event is for you!
Co-designed by Scottish Recovery Network, with 14 peer support organisations across Scotland, we’ve created an Adaptable Outcome Map which offers a relational approach to evaluation that is based in peer values. It’s a practical tool built upon Matter of Focus’ Outcome mapping approach built by people who understand peer support. It uses peer support language and values and recognises that peer support creates change at multiple levels.
As part of the continued development of this tool, launching later this year, we’re bringing half-day interactive workshops to locations across Scotland so peer support workers and teams can think about evaluation curiously and creatively. This is rare space to approach evaluation differently alongside people within a range of roles.
At the workshops
Join us to explore the Adaptable Outcome Map, see how it works in real life through practical applications, discuss how evaluation can work in peer support settings, consider how to embed evaluation into your everyday work (not as an add-on), and build confidence in articulating your impact to funders and decision makers without losing warmth.
You’ll gain hands-on knowledge of the tool, hear directly from other people about their data collection and evaluation practices and be among the first to access and explore this new tool.
Book your place
We’ll be visiting multiple locations across Scotland. Spaces are limited, so book your place for the date that works for you.
