Description

We wish to conduct an evaluation of the Heritage Grants projects funded under HLF's 3rd Strategic Plan (SP3), which ran from December 2008 to March 2013. Under SP3 HLF awarded over £964m to 777 Heritage Grants, ranging in size from £50,000 to over £5m. Of these 777 projects, 375 are now complete.

This study will involve a comprehensive review of the self-evaluation reports and the outcomes achieved by 150-175 Heritage Grants projects completed since July 2016, and which were funded under SP3. There are three key tasks:
a) To assess the quality of the 150-175 completed project self-evaluations, using the methodology and grading developed from a prior evaluation of 200 completed projects - see https://www.hlf.org.uk/about-us/research-evaluation/programme-evaluation/review-grantee-evaluations.
b) To use the self-evaluations, alongside other assessment and monitoring material, to establish the range and success of activities and outcomes achieved by SP3 Heritage Grants projects, and to map these findings onto HLF's outcomes framework that has been in use since 2012.
c) To build on the Excel dataset already developed as part of the prior review of 200 self-evaluations, both enabling the results to be aggregated with this study, as well as for comparison between the two studies.
