Research Your Way

Ever wondered what the UK's first Community Jury on Climate Change might look like?!

Wonder no more! Check out this brilliant video which explains what has been happening in Bude, Cornwall, over the last 6 months as part of Resilient Bude, a multi-stranded Project being managed by Bude Climate Partnership, funded by The Climate Action Fund of The National Lottery Community Fund

Research Your Way Ltd and Clarity CIC are delighted to be evaluating this important project which involves community partners working together - for Bude - to deliver activities for 5 years.

It's been another wonderful year serving our clients across the UK and beyond! Thank you to all of you who have chosen us as your evaluation, learning, impact and/or research partner this year.

We wish you a very Happy Christmas, if you celebrate it, and a peaceful holiday season.

Naomi is quoted in Nature again today, as an expert on research careers beyond academia:

How five researchers fared after their ‘great resignation’ from academia A career leap into the unknown can be unsettling, but you can take steps to ease the transition.

Such a privilege to be at the Climate Jury yesterday to see the process firsthand. We are evaluating the 5 year National Lottery funded Resilient Bude project, with Clarity CIC.

We are delighted to be working with The Box, in Plymouth, to evaluate the impact of their creative activities with communities across the South West.

Plymouth Box museum visitor numbers exceed expectations The Box museum and cultural centre had 40,000 more visitors last year than the year before.

It was wonderful to represent the Net Zero Visions Project at a recent Creation Hub event in Mid Devon. The project is UKRI funded and a collaboration between Devon Climate Emergency and the University of Plymouth. Research Your Way has been gathering and analysing impact data over the 1.5 years, working with Prof David Sergeant who leads the project.

Great to see that the Creation Hub in Uplowman earlier this month was a huge success! 🙌

The Sampford Peverell Team Mission Community held the event to explore what's next for the project in Mid Devon and how local villages can make a positive difference in their environment.

The project itself asks residents to envision what a future could look like in their area. We collaborated with researchers from the University of Plymouth, local communities, artists and transition experts to bring these Visions to life as murals, poems, illustrations and more.

🌍 We are doing a lot of geodemographic analysis of clients' datasets this month at Research Your Way Ltd

🌍 What is that I hear you ask? It's very exciting for a Human Geographer like me!

🌍 Geodemography is the study of people based on where they live.

🌍 We are using clients' postcode data to explore the neighbourhood characteristics of where their service-users live, using large-scale datasets like the Indices of Multiple Deprivation.

🌍 If you need help understanding more about your service-users so that you can increase your impact, feel free to get in touch for a no-obligation chat.

It's been wonderful to work with so many fabulous clients on exciting evaluation, impact and engagement projects this year! We love supporting you to maximise your impact in communities across the UK.

We've just started a new project so a bit too immersed in data and literature to make a fancy infographic this year but you can see our review of 2022 below.

We hope you have a very Happy Christmas, manage to take a well-deserved break and look forward to working with you in 2023.
