Table 2 — What we do

A quiet, methodical approach to public data.

Fenvora works with reporters, researchers and civic groups who want their use of statistics to hold up under scrutiny. We do not chase shortcuts or unverified leads. Instead we focus on the published record — census releases, sector surveys, budget documents — and how to read, present and build on it responsibly.

  • Grounded entirely in lawfully published sources
  • Practical sessions built around your own material

Table 5 — Our approach

Researcher reviewing printed statistical reports

Method before momentum

  • We work only with lawfully obtained, publicly available data
  • Ordinary explanations are checked before unusual ones
  • Sources and definitions are recorded as work proceeds
  • Comment is sought from the bodies concerned, on the figures used

If a session sounds useful, we're glad to talk it through with you first.

What participants say

"The session on revisions changed how I write about survey data. I stopped treating every update as a contradiction."

"Our charts are far more defensible now. The review caught two scale issues we'd used for months without noticing."
