This document discusses social impact bonds and how they work. Social impact bonds allow investors to fund social service organizations working with a target population. If the organizations deliver positive social outcomes, the government pays investors based on the results. This provides funding for interventions while transferring performance risk from the government to investors. The six key steps are: 1) government and investors sign a contract setting payment amounts per outcome, 2) investors provide funding based on the contract, 3) funding is used by social service organizations to work with those in need, 4) the organizations deliver services to improve outcomes, 5) positive outcomes are achieved benefiting society and reducing government costs, 6) the government pays investors based on results achieved.

Easing of lockdown practical considerations for managing and support staffNCVO - National Council for Voluntary Organisations
Normal working practices have changed dramatically in a very short period. Most staff are still working remotely, and many organisations have made use of the furlough scheme. This has meant organisations are having to manage and support staff remotely; review some existing policies to ensure they are still fit for purpose; and manage with a reduced and rotating staff capacity. In partnership with our Trusted Supplier Croner, in this webinar we will be sharing good practice on managing and supporting staff in this new environment. We will be joined by Vicky Scott, Operations and HR Manager at Hackney CVS who will share the experiences and learnings of Hackney CVS in this new context.How to manage operational change in a time of uncertainty

NCVO webinar: UK Civil Society Almanac 2020: What the latest data tells usNCVO - National Council for Voluntary Organisations
The document summarizes key findings from the UK Civil Society Almanac 2020. It finds that while the number of organizations has remained stable in recent years, most are small with incomes under £100k. Total charity income and assets have grown but more slowly in recent years, with the public now the main income source versus government. Reserves are back to pre-2008 crisis levels but reductions in investments could threaten financial fragility. The paid workforce has reached 900,000 but is likely to decrease, while formal volunteering rates have remained stable though changing in form. The document outlines implications and practical support available for charities during the current challenges.NCVO Webinar: Legal and practical considerations for returning to work

VIP Introducing impact slides
- 1. Impact The difference we make in the world Impact / outcomes = the changes, benefits or other effects that happen to those you’re working on behalf of or who use your services.
- 2. Things to do with Impact • Think impact – always keep it in mind • Plan to create it – when defining your strategy • Deliver impact – in your work • Assess impact – measure how well are you meeting your planned impact • Improve it – learn how to create more impact • Communicate it – internally and externally
- 3. Where is your organisation now on impact? Red:- your organisation is not even talking about impact or outcomes, let alone evidencing, communicating and learning from them. Amber:- you have talked about your impact/outcomes and you capture your outputs but have struggled to capture information about your impact. Your plans are not always focused on intended impact and you’re not always good at communicating the difference you make. Green:- Your organisation knows a fair bit about impact and has found ways of capturing some evidence of outcomes but want to see if there are ways of improving what you do and learning from others and the VIP materials.
- 4. Important Definitions • Outputs – the services you deliver • Experiences – how users feel when using your services • Outcomes/Impact – the changes, benefits or other effects that happen to your beneficiaries or users as a result of your services • Beneficiaries – the people that you ultimately exist to benefit • Users/audiences – the people you work on or with in order to help your beneficiaries (e.g. external agencies)
Editor's Notes
- Slide instructions: 1 clickNarrative:These are useful definitions of terms that may come up and how NCVO defines each one. There are some added complications for IO’s because they have so many different types of engagement with civil society groups, but it is still worth defining who your beneficiaries are.
