Programme outcome figure set
A compact set of six to ten figures for an annual programme report: reach, retention, and outcome measures drawn from the tables you already keep.

Outcome figures that can sit in the grant report without apology.
Service Trailline draws charts, captions, and short briefing notes for research programme outcomes and grant impact. The work is commissioned as a pack for a named funder deadline, not sold as software.
What you receive
A numbered pack, a source table, and captions a panel can read aloud.
Universities, research charities, and public-body funded consortia already keep monitoring workbooks. What they often lack, in the month before a progress report, is a set of figures whose wording matches those workbooks and the funder’s headings.
We prepare print-ready PDFs and individual figure files. Each bar, line, or map carries a caption that names the measure, the group, and the limit of the claim. A source table traces every number back to a sheet you supplied.
They refused to draw a reach bar that mixed unique people with session counts. I was irritated on the Tuesday and grateful on the Thursday.
In the grant cycle
Where the drawing sits
- Before the bid, a Theory of Change diagram so partners share outcome names.
- At mid-term, a claim register and annex figures that still match the original work packages.
- For the final report, an impact briefing pack timed to institutional sign-off.
- When the figure list itself is disputed, a half-day mapping session before anyone draws.
Flagship commission
Grant impact briefing pack
For principal investigators who must submit an outcomes or impact annex to a named UK funder. Typical delivery is eight to fourteen figures, a two-page reading note, and two revision rounds, over three to five weeks.
Primary data collection is not included. We summarise tables you already hold and will omit a work package that has no outcome measure rather than invent a trend.

Other drawing we take
Theory of Change diagram
A wall-chart and page-size diagram that shows activities, outputs, and intended outcomes in the language your steering group already uses.
Evaluation evidence synthesis pack
A visual synthesis of mixed evaluation material — survey tables, case notes, and attendance logs — arranged so a review panel can see strength of evidence, not only volume.
Outcome mapping session
A half-day working session with the research team to agree which outcomes can be drawn, which remain narrative, and which claims to drop before a draughtsperson starts.
Bring the funder template and the workbook you actually use.
Estimates follow the number of work packages, the quality of the extract, and the submission date. We reply within three working days.
