Summary of the Strategic Framework
BIG is proud to produce BIG thinking – our Strategic Framework to 2015 and What You Told Us. These two new documents are the culmination of the biggest consultation exercise BIG has ever undertaken – with nearly 3,500 responses to our online survey between November 2008 to February 2009.
BIG thinking sets out the principles which will underpin BIG’s approach to funding in the UK in the next six years. It explains what we want to achieve and how we will deliver our Mission & Vision: bringing real improvements to communities and the lives of people most in need. All of our future programmes will use the new framework as a starting point and it sets out our ambitions for being an efficient and responsive funder.

- 3,550KB is an in-depth analysis of the responses to the consultation, drawing on material from the online survey and the regional and national meetings held during the three months of the consultation. It shows where there was the strongest support for our ideas and where we will want to discuss issues further in the coming months. It demonstrates how we came to the conclusions in BIG thinking – our Strategic Framework to 2015 and we see it as a crucial part of what has been a very open and transparent consultation process.
