Using Data Better At Your Organisation

This interactive workshop is part of a training series run in collaboration between 4in10 – London’s Child Poverty Network and Superhighways. The workshop series provides an exciting, free opportunity to upskill in core digital and online skills to help your organisation thrive in an increasingly online world.

From designing graphics for online fundraising to social media best practices, this series is perfect for you if you want to grow your charity's digital influence and reach in 2022. Or alternatively, if you or a colleague are looking for some professional skills development.

Superhighways, the training facilitators, have a plethora of experience providing advice, training and IT support to help small charities and community organisations across London be more effective, raise their profile and demonstrate their impact using digital technology.

This Workshop:

Data isn’t just about numbers and statistics, or even stories; it’s about asking the right questions of the valuable information at your disposal, so that you can better meet the needs of the people you support.

Small charities and community organisations are capturing useful data all the time. So are local authorities, national government and bigger charities. Both our own data and that of others can help us understand why our interventions work, ensure policy makers listen and prevent us being overlooked for vital funds.

Ultimately it helps us make the right decisions, spotting problems before they happen and identifying solutions in ever changing political and socio-economic conditions.

We’ll cover:

• Data collection – the what and the why
• Data analysis – asking questions of our internal and external data
• Data presentation – some ideas for telling stories and engaging others
• Free or low costs digital tools that can help

Format: Online interactive group training

This is an online interactive live training session. You'll take part in multiple interactive exercises. These may include breakout room discussions, use of collaborative tools and polls or quizzes.

Please join with your camera on (where possible) and bring your ideas, creativity, and challenges to share.

Who should attend:

Anyone in a small charity or community organisation in London that is responsible for making decisions about what you do and how you deliver your activities based on the information you have. This is for beginners and anyone who wants to explore the role of data in shaping their own services or influencing others.
