Talking to Funders About Group Mentoring Impact

This guide explains how organisations delivering group mentoring can present impact clearly within funding applications and grant reporting. It explores how evidence from surveys, monitoring systems, qualitative reflection, and interactive evaluation activites can be used to answer common funder questions about mentoring outcomes and change.

​

Using practical examples, the guide shows how to describe the difference group mentoring makes, explain the role of peer interaction and facilitated discussion within delivery, and present evidence in ways that are structured, credible, and relevant to commissioners and funders.
