Our impact
Measure the difference, not just the attendance.
Purple Elm wants to understand whether its support makes a meaningful practical difference for the people it reaches.
Initial project targets
Clear aims for the work ahead
The figures below are project targets and planned activity, not historic achievements.

Measuring what matters
We will listen for practical change.
Where clients consent, Purple Elm intends to record issues, actions and outcomes so the team can learn and improve.
The aim is to see whether people understand their position more clearly and feel more confident about their next step — not simply to count activity.
