Evidence before claims

Impact

The difference our businesses and community activity make should be visible, specific and supported by evidence.

How we report

Numbers need context. Stories need evidence.

Impact should be demonstrated with evidence rather than broad claims. This page brings together the outcomes we can substantiate across community activity, practical support and the work of the wider group.

What we measure

  • the support actually provided to a community project or organisation;
  • participation, volunteering, attendance or reach where reliable figures exist;
  • digital, hosting or practical support delivered through a group business;
  • business or community outcomes that can be linked to a defined piece of work;
  • environmental or sustainability actions with a clear source and review date.

What we do not do

We do not publish unsupported headline figures simply to make the group look bigger. Where we publish a number, the underlying record should retain the source, period and context so it can be reviewed later.

Community impact

Our Community & Projects records explain what the project was, what Invictus contributed, why the support mattered and what evidence is available. Unverified project records remain unpublished.

Building the evidence base

As the group develops, this page will draw from governed project and business records rather than manually maintained marketing claims. That lets figures be updated when the underlying evidence changes instead of leaving stale statistics on the public site.

From evidence to outcome

Source it. Explain the contribution. Review the result.

Important meaning remains in the written content; the graphic simply makes the process easier to scan.

Evidence first. Context matters. No invented numbers. Review before publish.
01

Source it

Keep the source, period and context behind a published figure or outcome.

02

Explain the contribution

Describe what Invictus actually did rather than claiming the full success of a wider project.

03

Review it

Older figures should be reviewed when the project, supplier or underlying data changes.

04

Leave gaps where needed

If we cannot substantiate a number yet, we would rather leave it unpublished than guess.
