Evaluation of the Scottish Recovery Network
This evaluation of the Scottish Recovery Network (SRN) was commissioned by the Scottish Government and ran from October 2009 ? September 2010. The aims of the evaluation were to assess the effectiveness and impact of the SRN (at a national policy level; at a local level; and at the level of service users), and the extent to which the SRN is providing value for money. The evaluation involved the collection of data from a range of sources. Interviews and / or focus groups were carried out with key stakeholders including SRN staff. In addition, a review was undertaken of the SRN-related evaluation literature and an analysis carried out of the SRN?s data on resource distribution, events attendance and website visits. Finally, four local case studies (involving both service users and service providers) were undertaken.
