Build Back Better 2022-2023 Grant Programme Report
The Build Back Better 2022-2023 Impact Report showcases the achievements and impact of our grants to 21 organisations that work to improve the lives of children and young people in Harrow.
The Build Back Better funding enabled new interventions to be piloted and tested with beneficiaries, ranging from Harrow Carers setting up an archery club to generate income in the future, to increasing capacity by employing more staff, to setting youth advisory boards to co-design service offering.
The feedback received from beneficiaries on new interventions has been invaluable and has already allowed some grantees to tailor activities, therefore increase their chances of achieving their intended outcomes and maximising their impact.
