Hi Jon, I'm confused - how can it be a 'small internal meeting' that also includes people that aren't 'internal' to the WMUK office? And why, if it's an internal meeting, did it take place on a weekend necessitating staff to give up their Saturday? Thanks, Mike On 7 Apr 2014, at 09:40, Jon

Internal is the sense that it was staff and people who had been/are employed as WiR plus one other person who had been heavily involved in the employment and a trustee. When we reviewed Train the Trainers we followed a similar model of small groups, individual interviews etc. This was part of

Thanks for your answers on this Jon. Nice to see you engaging with volunteers. I seem to be left to answer my own question. I have to assume an on-wiki page does not exist. The charity and the board of trustees is 100% committed to transparency and staying volunteer-centric. To demonstrate that

Thanks for that explanation. Could you provide a link to the review meetings that were held in advance of designing the survey? If this was a model for the WIR review, then I presume that as a Lead Trainer I was invited to contribute to that stage, not just the general satisfaction survey that is

Great idea, Andy! I'm amazed nobody thought about this earlier. A tangent, and one that probably belongs on the wiki (though I don't know where), but is it better to do these by county or by force area? Obviously for the West Mids these are the same, but in other areas the police force covers
