At Vibe, we use Centre for Youth Impact (CFYI) tools to measure the effectiveness of our youth work. These tools provide a clear and structured way to evaluate the positive changes in young people's lives. Here’s how we make it happen:

Young People’s Voices at the Heart - Our approach begins with listening. We collect feedback directly from young people through surveys and reflective discussions, ensuring their experiences shape our programmes.

Partnership Accountability = Sharing insights with funders and stakeholders demonstrates our impact, builds trust, and secures future investments.

Evidence-Based Frameworks - We align our evaluations with CFYI’s proven frameworks to assess personal development, relationships, and community impact. This ensures we measure what matters most.

Outcomes That Speak - We focus on key indicators like increased confidence, improved relationships and reduced risk-taking behaviors, providing tangible evidence of success.

By embedding these tools into everything we do, we ensure our youth work is not only meaningful but measurable.

Real-Time Tracking - Data is collected throughout our programmes, enabling us to adapt and respond quickly to emerging needs.

Social Value Statement

Vibe UK – Creating Sustainable Social Impact through Youth Work and Positive Relationships

At Vibe UK, we are dedicated to creating lasting social value by helping young people understand the impact of positive, healthy relationships. As a youth work charity based in the Liverpool City Region, we invest in the potential of young people, helping them build confidence, resilience, and connections to navigate life’s challenges.

Guided by Vibe’s RF4 (Relationships Framework for Youth Work) model, our programmes are designed to foster positive relationships, starting with the relationship young people have with themselves. By understanding these relationships, we help young people build a sense of belonging and well-being, while supporting them in identifying both the opportunities and challenges that shape their futures.

Our social value is realised through:

  • Reducing social exclusion by creating inclusive environments that encourage personal growth and positive engagement.

  • Equipping young people with the skills needed for lifelong learning, employability, and economic stability.

  • Strengthening community cohesion through engaging youth in activities that build trust, safety, and collaboration.

We partner with local authorities, schools, community stakeholders, and organisations across the region to deliver measurable outcomes. As a charity, we rely on funding from a variety of sources, including local authorities, police, and other funding streams. This shared responsibility ensures our programmes receive sustainable investment to support young people.

We are shaping a generation that values healthy relationships and is ready to drive positive change in their communities.
