Evaluation
We conducted an evaluation of the Working Together Project in West Yorkshire. The evaluation included a review of the individual projects, a review and assessment of the extent to which projects worked together as a group and an assessment of effectiveness.
Approach
Our approach to the evaluation was to focus on the collection of quality qualitative material from the projects. Our methods included peer assessments, semi structured interviews, focus group consultation and effectiveness scale measurements. A total of 15 interviews were conducted providing a wealth of material for analysis.
Outcome
The evaluation identified a number of successes from the Working Together project in relation to partnership building, models of best practice, achievement of contractual outputs and the spirit of 'Working Together'. A number of recommendations were put forward in regards to the continuation of the work established by the project.
