Fortia Insight is delivering a national evaluation for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and The National Lottery Community Fund, exploring how extended youth provision can help reduce youth anti-social behaviour (ASB) in communities across England. The evaluation involves visiting ten locations in summer 2026 to understand community perspectives and the impact of expanded youth services, including a visit to Ancoats and Beswick.
Fortia Insight are inviting locally rooted organisations to apply to become Community Navigators, working alongside their evaluation team to help plan, promote, and co-deliver community focus groups, and to contribute to interpreting the findings. The role includes taking part in a half day training session, supporting planning and preparation, helping to promote participation, co delivering up to two focus groups, and joining a findings workshop.
To recognise the estimated 4.5 to 5 days of involvement, participating organisations will receive a £1,000 (exc. VAT) fixed fee, inclusive of staff time and any associated expenses. In addition to this all community participants will receive a £20 Love2Shop voucher.
The attached Statement of Requirements includes full details of the role, conditions of participation, and application process. To apply complete the Expression of Interest form here or attached by 7th June 2026 at 5pm.
