Training
We provide high-quality training for individuals, groups and organisations that are looking to research in and with local communities. We provide direct training to peer and community researchers. We also provide ‘train the trainer’ packages, supporting organisations to build their community research and innovation capacity. We have proven accelerator programmes that support social enterprises and mission-led businesses to increase their scale and impact – often through brokering cross-sector partnerships.
Our training packages are highly adaptable, and are proven to work in a range of bespoke settings and diverse participants.

Bespoke training
We work with you to translate your research needs and aims into a project brief and timeline. We then work collaboratively to meet your brief. We manage your research project end-to-end, co-ordinating the team, and processing the data and insights that are gathered during the project.
