Measuring Success: A social value roundtable

How do we know if we’ve created a successful place? How do we measure impact over time?

These are the questions we explored at our Measuring Success roundtable, in partnership with Landsec in June 2022.

We brought together experts across the built environment sector, financial institutions, local authorities, universities and community organisations to discuss:

• People’s perceptions and definitions of social value
• What different organisations are measuring when it comes to social value
• How to integrate communities’ health, wellbeing and lived experiences

This report summarises the conversations, sharing key takeaways and recommendations for anyone looking to measure social value. It will feed into our work as we seek to improve benchmarking across the housing system, and as we work with others to develop a set of key performance indicators to support best practice.
