SECTORS
WiderArc works with universities, local authorities, health and NHS organisations, maternity and midwifery services, and housing providers, bringing specialist organisational expertise to the priorities and challenges that shape each sector.
Effective consultancy depends on understanding the environment in which organisations operate. We adapt our approach to the priorities, structures, pressures and communities that shape each sector.
WiderArc supports universities across a range of strategic, organisational and student-focused priorities. Our work can include student success, continuation and belonging; foundation years, access and widening participation; equality, diversity and inclusion; charter applications and action planning; governance and assurance; leadership and organisational development; and the review or evaluation of projects, services and institutional initiatives. We work with organisations to understand their particular context, bring together evidence and stakeholder perspectives and translate findings into practical, sustainable improvement.
WiderArc works with local authorities facing complex organisational, workforce and service-delivery challenges. Support can include leadership and organisational development, equality and inclusion, governance and assurance, organisational culture, action planning, service reviews and independent project or programme evaluation. Our approach recognises the operational and public-service context in which councils work, helping organisations examine evidence, engage staff and stakeholders, identify opportunities for improvement and develop proportionate actions that strengthen organisational effectiveness and the services delivered to communities.
WiderArc supports NHS and wider healthcare organisations, including maternity and midwifery services, with organisational and workforce challenges where leadership, culture, inclusion and service improvement intersect. This can include leadership and organisational development, equality and diversity work, staff-network development, workforce engagement, action planning, project evaluation and independent service review. Within maternity and midwifery settings, WiderArc can bring particular focus to workforce experience, inclusion, organisational culture and meaningful change, while recognising the complex professional, operational and service environments in which healthcare organisations work.
WiderArc supports housing organisations with organisational development, governance, culture, inclusion and service improvement. Our work can help organisations review existing services and ways of working, strengthen leadership and workforce capability, develop practical action plans and evaluate projects or improvement initiatives. We bring together organisational evidence, stakeholder perspectives and practical analysis to identify strengths, challenges and opportunities for improvement, helping housing providers develop approaches that support effective governance, stronger organisational practice and high-quality services.
