Writing engaging case studies has never been so important in showcasing the impact of your charity. Putting a human face on your activity is one of the most effective ways to inspire confidence in your organisation and its work.
Make sure you’re using your human stories in the right way, to encourage funders, audiences and volunteers to invest in your organisation and trust it to deliver on its promises. Make your case studies tell your story, using them in your communications to get you the results you need. Learn how to set metrics to ensure that the impact of these communications can be measured.
It has given me the confidence to take ownership of the stories process at Scope and influence the press team to change the ways we produce press releases.
