The following are examples of questions that may be included in a network evaluation form workers are asked to fill in to monitor network activity:

• What is the purpose of the network and does it generally achieve its aims?
• As a worker, what benefits do you obtain from belonging to the network?
• What benefits do you think the network offers the organisation?
• Do you think participating in the network helps improve service delivery to person groups?
• What constraints limit or affect your participation in the network?
• Does the network provide relevant professional development opportunities?
• Are meetings and network activities relevant to the organisation’s aims and needs?
• Do you believe that ongoing participation in the network provides benefits to the organisation, workers and person groups?
