Savera UK has today published its first ever “Theory of Change” visualisation, describing the social change that will be enacted through the charity’s work.

Our Theory of Change, which was developed with the support of the Lloyds Bank Foundation for England & Wales, is separated into two key audiences: survivors and those at risk of ‘honour’-based abuse and harmful practices and professionals, community and general public.

Both highlight the demand that the charity faces, its strategic response, the likely course of change and the immediate and lasting impacts of the work delivered by Savera UK’s direct intervention, training, education, community, communications and campaigns teams to address that demand.

The Theory of Change has been published ahead of the upcoming launch of its new five-year strategy, and will be used as a tool to build shared understanding with internal and external stakeholders about Savera UK’s organisational purpose, as well as informing its strategic plan and evaluating its ongoing impact.

Savera UK CEO, Afrah Qassim, said: “Developing our Theory of Change with the support of consultant Abi Tweed, from Milestone tweed, funded by Lloyds Bank Foundation for England & Wales has allowed us to define our work and its likely impact and created a tool to help us develop our next five-year strategy, communicate our work and create shared understanding and keep us focused on our mission.”
