Learning from the Life Chances Fund projects: impact & ways forward

Lecture Theatre 1

In this practice-focused session we will dive deep into the experience of some of the social outcomes partnership projects supported through the Life Chances Fund. We will look at projects across different policy areas to explore impact, success factors as well as implementation challenges. We will also reflect together on the projects’ sustainability plans and legacy.

The Life Chances Fund (LCF) is a pioneering £70m programme, launched by the UK Government in 2016. It supports 29 locally-commissioned projects focussed on supporting vulnerable individuals, and it is underpinned by an ambitious and innovative data and evaluation agenda.
