How can an initiative that addresses diverse challenges and serves a wide range of beneficiaries be effectively evaluated and continuously improved?
The Brief

Wellcome Trust commissioned Liminal, in collaboration with Holis, to evaluate their initiative, the Wellcome Hub. Originally established to support scientific research addressing urgent health challenges—such as mental health, infectious diseases, and climate change—the Hub works with diverse beneficiaries. Liminal and Holis were tasked with developing a multi-perspective evaluation framework for the program and identifying opportunities for improvement.

The Outcome

In this project, Liminal and Holis designed and implement an evaluation tool that included surveys and in-depth interviews with past and present residents and applicants. This process revealed Wellcome’s ability to adapt to diverse residency needs while addressing the challenges faced by participants. Wellcome’s openness to adjusting its approach was key to the project’s success, fostering innovative working models. Through this process, Wellcome has gained valuable insights into scaling this collaborative approach to tackle emerging health challenges in the future.

“This evaluation has really helped Wellcome understand the effectiveness of the Hub model and consider how to develop this collaborative working method to address new health challenges in the future.”
