Strategic review of Lasa Social Welfare Law Services
Grant: £26,340
November 14, 2018
Lasa will partner with Social Finance to create a new strategy to extend the reach of its services, and further develop the ability to generate earned income. The focus will be to concentrate on developing core social welfare law services meeting the needs of advisers working with communities to protect rights and ensure access to justice.
The project will include an analysis of Lasa’s current userbase to see who, why and how people use Lasa’s services, what is done well, what could be improved, people’s perception of Lasa and where it sits in the market. The project will also review and analyse the current strategic plan and look to identify potential expansion opportunities into new areas.
