National Federation of Women’s Institutes : Project 1
Project:
Analysing membership data
Project description:
The National Federation of Women’s Institutes is a campaigning and educational charity with more than 200,000 members, based in over 6000 local Women's Institutes (WIs) across England and Wales. Whilst the NFWI regularly assesses total membership numbers, and total number of WIs, it has never previously analysed these numbers in a way that would validate or challenge anecdotal evidence, and help guide management action and insight on issues such as: the number, characteristics and geographic locations of members leaving, new recruits, WIs closing and opening.
This project is to explore the data available to NFWI, identify what outputs would be useful to them, and analyse the data accordingly. A desirable further output is guidance for non-specialist staff to enable them to repeat or extend the analysis in future.
Time commitment: 5 days
The volunteer is asked to commit 5 days initially (spread out as needed):
- 1 day to establish and firm up on requirements and to understand the current systems and data available
- 3 days to clean and analyse the data
- 1 day to report.
There is likely to be scope for more work, and this should be assessed by the volunteer, with the NFWI General Secretary, and either included, or identified as a follow-on project for another volunteer.
Location: The volunteer(s) should spend one or two days on site, in discussions with the General Secretary and staff and reviewing systems. The bulk of the work can be carried out off-site.
