What the numbers do not say

The 87% is the figure funders ask for and it is a real one, measured at twelve months by an independent evaluator. It is also the least interesting thing on this page.

The number we watch internally is how many young people come back in a second year without being chased. Last year it was 61%. The year before it was 44%.

KIT GAP D3 — A simple bar or line chart of the twelve-month outcome figure over five years belongs here. The Kit has a numbers block and a table, but no chart block, so the trend is described in prose above instead.
