Measuring the Social Impact of Community Investment: A Guide to using the Wellbeing Valuation Approach

  • Research by Affinity Sutton and Catalyst, along with the London School for Economics and HACT, has created the Social Value Bank.
  • The Social Value Bank is a set of 53 measures that will enable organisations involved in community investment to calculate their impact.

Groundbreaking new research by Affinity Sutton and Catalyst housing associations, with the London School of Economics and HACT, has created the ‘Social Value Bank.’

This is a set of 53 measures that will enable any organisation involved in community investment activity – from reducing antisocial behaviour to helping residents into work – to calculate the impact of their activity.

Please note this research was conducted prior to Affinity Sutton merging with Circle Housing to create Clarion Housing Group.
