A Monitoring and Evaluation Advisory Group guides and supports development of the evaluation strategy of the SVA programme.   This is chaired by Evaluation Support Scotland with other members from  partner organisations. The document outlining the remit of the group is available for download from here.

In order to ensure that evaluation is not excessively onerous, monitoring procedures are integrated with existing systems and procedures. A key aim will be to ensure that Supporting Voluntary Action monitoring dovetails with monitoring for the CVS Core Activities Framework and the Quality Framework.

Members of the group are:

Steven Marwick - Evaluation Support Scotland (Chair)
Helen Harper - Volunteer Development Scotland
Lesley Kelly - Midlothian CVS
Carol Greer - Citizens Advice Scotland
Margaret Wilson - SCVO
Maureen Stephens - Bridge CVS
