Dates announced for Let’s Evaluate Peer Support Roadshow!

Peer support organisations do remarkable work but it can be challenging to articulate the impact to funders and decision makers.

When it comes to evaluation, many people face the same challenge: existing frameworks don’t capture the ripple effects of peer support, they use clinical language that doesn’t fit and they feel like tick-box exercises disconnected from the real work.

Our Adaptable Outcome Map offers a different approach. Co-designed by Scottish Recovery Network with 14 peer support organisations across Scotland, it’s a practical framework built by people who understand peer support. It uses peer support language and values and recognises that peer support creates change at multiple levels.

Roadshow workshops

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 and we can’t wait to welcome you to a workshop in:

  • Edinburgh – 2 April
  • Glasgow -22 April
  • Dundee – 30 April
  • Inverness – 7 May
  • Fife – 14 May

You’ll explore the Adaptable Outcome Map, see how it works in real life through practical applications, discover data collection methods that work in peer support settings, learn how to embed evaluation into everyday work (not as an add-on), and build confidence in articulating your impact to funders and decision makers.

You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how the Map works, practical tools you can use immediately, blank templates to adapt for your organisation and connections with other peer support teams doing similar work.

Email info@scottishrecovery.net to gage your interest and we’ll be in touch when booking opens.

Who this is the workshop for?

This workshop is open to everyone with a role in mental health, peer support or an interest in relational evaluation. Everyone has a role in evaluation and everyone brings equal value to this space:

  • People and organisations already delivering peer support who want to evaluate their work in a way that fits their values and captures real impact
  • People and organisations interested in introducing peer support who want to understand how to build evaluation into peer support from the start
  • Anyone committed to relational, values-based evaluation who believes evaluation should be embedded in practice, not imposed as a tick-box exercise
