Inspiring Impact
The Inspiring Impact NI Programme is a Northern Ireland wide initiative that aims to support voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations and their funders to better understand and embrace impact practice.
NICVA is one of the 13 organisations awarded a grant to support groups to plan for impact practice in Northern Ireland.
We will be running a series of masterclasses and follow up clinics to introduce organisations to the tools, techniques and resources available through the Inspiring Impact Programme. We will also list resources on this hub to help you improve your impact practice.
