Renaisi has been commissioned by The Princess Royal Trust for Carers, to complete an evaluation of their ‘Whole Family Intervention Pilot Project’, which has taken an holistic approach to supporting young carers in two pilot areas.
Renaisi will work with the Trust, the pilot funders Comic Relief, and the projects themselves to understand the ways in which the project has supported the carers and their families, and also how supporting the carer and the family together is mutually reinforcing.
We will also work closely with the carers themselves and their families to better understand what they value from the support they receive, and how the Trust and others can duplicate the success of these projects in different settings. By focussing on the key issues of value, a theory of change, and the key factors of scalability and replicability, the study will provide both an evaluation of the pilots and an evidence base for future work.
