Our Starting Point - A Theory of Change

We feel the next step for us is to collaborate with key stakeholders (Police Scotland/SPA and officer and staff associations and unions) to undertake a Theory of Change. This would enable us to develop a coherent narrative that connects goals, activities and impact i.e. officer and staff perception/mindset would be a barrier/enabler of the effectiveness of any wellbeing interventions.

A Theory of Change is a practical tool that paves the way for informed decision-making and evidence-based adjustments to programmes. It serves as an evaluation framework informing where data needs to be collected and why. An example layout for a Theory of Change is shown below:
