 'How to' Guides

 

The Young Foundation has published a series of  "How To" guides covering:

 1. How to find and select the best innovations, 

2. How to contract, monitor and evaluate innovations, 

3. How to generate economic evidence for innovations, and 

4. How to design and deliver support for innovations.

The guides are primarily aimed at fund holders, but also contain plenty of useful information for NHS innovators, especially around evaluation and return on investment. Please follow the link below to download the four guides.
