Comments from recipients of the Organisational Health Check
- "Just to let you know that we found this a brilliant exercise – making everyone look objectively at the Scheme in considered and cohesive detail. Well worth doing – I would recommend it to any organisation"
- “Excellent, I thought it was a really good process, very easy to use, very helpful guys who came and took the session, they made it very relaxed so people felt able to speak their minds”
- “As a result of the recommendations made after our Community Health Check we have set up sub groups to lead on Communication, Funding and Planning.Our new Communications Group then presented our Sustainability Plan to local agencies and our Planning Team are leading the collection of evidence for a Quality Mark, all as a result of the Health Check recommendations.”
- “We approached Can Do Communities to undertake a Health Check on our organisation to enable a smooth transition from voluntary group to registered charity. A number of areas were identified during the health check that needed focussed development. This process enabled us to access legal support and guidance that moved the process through very quickly.”
- "The Community Healthcheck covers all the areas that Community Matters feel are important for community groups to regularly review, and the results should help them plan their future with confidence."
