Understanding Third Sector Evidence and
Need: OPFS Experience
![Page 5: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
OPFS – Some Background
Leading charity working with single parent families.
Provide expert, tailored advice and practical
support through our national advice & information
service and community based family hubs.
Campaign with parents to make their voices heard
to change the systems, policies and attitudes that
disadvantage single parent families.
![Page 6: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
174,000 single parent families ( 29% of families)
281,000 dependent children
92% are female
40% of children in poverty live in a SPF (90,000)
54% of children in SPF’s live in poverty
This is predicted to rise to over 62% by 2021

Why Work with Academics ?
Quality evidence about single parents’
lived experience, and the systemic
barriers they face, is a vital part of
OPFS being a responsive, effective
organisation.
![Page 8: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
OPFS & Caledonian Univ - An
Example of Collaboration
What type of research did OPFS want to do?
What level and amount of research did we need?
What kind of research relationship did we want?
How do we finance additional costs that our
organisation is expected to cover?
Who would be our research partner ?

Wellbeing, Isolation & Poverty
“I feel like a ‘shadow citizen’. I know there are lots of
single parents out there but it’s as if we are invisible “
Single parents face challenges as sole carers and
breadwinners – but not only about income.
Anecdotal evidence through casework & groupwork
that SP’s in poverty are isolated and lonely.
Results in low self-esteem, poor mental health and
impact on achieving their potential.
![Page 10: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Research Collaboration with Caledonian
University (CU)
Prof John McKendrick undertook research to find out more.
On-line & paper survey of 800 SP’s & ten 1to1 interviews.
Research Aims:
1. Better understand isolation and loneliness among single parents and impact on health, wellbeing and poverty.
2. Establish how & where SP’s access services.
3. Use this knowledge to design and deliver practical service delivery options to tackle these problems.

Research Findings /1
84% of SP’s report being lonely.
SP’s who work are less likely to be lonely
SP’s with a disability in family are more lonely.
Geog. matters and young SP’s esp. isolated.
56% of SP’s self-rated their general health as good
/ very good, compared to 73% of all people.
![Page 12: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Research Findings /2
Against UK averages well-being is lower among
single parents in Scotland. On the 10-point scale:
▪ 7.68 for life satisfaction compared to 5.23 for
single parents.
▪ 7.43 for happiness compared to 5.34 for single
parents.
▪ 2.85 for anxiety compared to 4.61 for single
parents.

Health & Wellbeing – Research
How OPFS used evidence
Developed new OPFS services.
Evidence used for successful Tampon Tax bid for new single parent tailored mental health and wellbeing service, peer group support and digital innovation.
Informed OPFS strategic planning.
Research which is accessible ultimately helping to inform OPFS policy priorities and strategic service delivery focus.

Lessons Learned Successes
▪ Enabled testing of new ideas.
▪ Way to translate knowledge into practice.
▪ Disseminating findings – influence policy.
Challenges
▪ SP’s ‘over’ researched – more about solutions.
▪ Resources needed - staff, funding.
▪ SP’S unique challenges require tailored response -not yet fully recognised.

How much is a lot of money?
• Third Sector under pressure
• Priority is action
• Cutting your cloth
• Academic research
![Page 50: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
What makes an academic tick?
• Academic paper potential
• Impact agenda
• Loss leaders
• Ego
• Full economic costing
![Page 51: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
What is out there?
• SIMD
• National data
• School-level data
• Lots that are not
• YOUR data
![Page 52: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Framing poverty

• Frameworks Institute
• Other advice

Conclusion: towards evaluation
• Payback!
• Research consultant v. academic
• Lots of advice
![Page 54: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Small group discussion (11:45 – 12:30)
Some questions to help guide the discussion (if needed!)
For third sector delegates:• What has been your experience working with your own evidence and data for
funding proposals and programme planning? Successes and challenges? • What has been your experience collaborating with academic partners on
projects?• Or if you haven’t yet, how might you envision a researcher working in your
organisation?
For academic delegates: • What type of projects are you interested in participating in with third sector
organisations?• What sorts of skills would you like to share/develop in collaboration with these
partners?
![Page 57: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Resources from our partners: ESS and University of Glasgow
Resources available from Evaluation Support Scotland, who work with third sector organisations and funders so that they can measure and report on their impact:

The University of Glasgow also runs a programme of collaborative dissertations for MSc and third sector organisations --
![Page 58: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Collaborative Dissertations
A collaborative dissertation is based on an
awareness that many organisations are in
need of good quality research and that
students are often keen to conduct research
which has immediate relevance in the world
beyond academia.
It offers an opportunity for organisations to
access academically rigorous supervised
research.
Essentially, it a dissertation conducted in
partnership between a student and an
organisation.
![Page 59: Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need · Understanding Third Sector Evidence and Need: Lessons learned from the field & collaborations with researchers Monday 7 October 2019](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051807/600372934c04292abe03c7be/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
What an organisation gets:
• The opportunity to work with a world class academic institution
• Research conducted at Masters level on a topic or area of interest and relevance to your organisation.
• The conversion of the research in to a product that you can use (an executive summary or “Lay Report”)
• No financial implications
As a partner you need to provide:
• Agreement to work with the student to develop the topic
• A mentor to work with the student and act as the main point of contact in your organisation
