Our impact
Since April 2026, ten funders have backed our work, more than three times what we used to raise in a year. Here’s what that support is making possible.
Growing fast
National, regional and local funders are backing Evolve, from The National Lottery and Sport England to Bolton CVS and Forever Manchester. That support means more sessions, more volunteers and more people reached.
This year’s programmes
The numbers below are the goals we’ve committed to with our funders. We’ll update them as we go.
Bringing residents together to care for local parks and green spaces, tackle loneliness and build pride in where we live.
Building on our walking group, local people asked for more. So we added women’s workshops and sessions that bring generations together.
Accessible, sociable walks that help inactive adults get moving, and open the door to everything else Evolve does.
Doing it properly
Every programme has clear goals, and we report back to our funders mid-way and at the end. Our management committee oversees our money, safeguarding and plans, and every payment needs two signatures.
Whether you’re a funder, a local business or a public service, we’d love to talk about how we can do more together.
