Explain what you do simply and clearly.
A clear ‘theory of change’ explaining how you know that what you do today makes a
difference for young people now and in the future.
How do you add value to other projects and services?
Ensure that you do as much of the planning as possible with CYP.
Needs led: shaped in response to specific knowledge and understanding of the
issues and challenges children and young people face.
Value for money: Carefully planned and designed projects which maximise the
impact of CIN’s public donation.
