What is Social Value?
No universal definition Social Enterprise UK: Social value asks the question: “If £1 is spent on
the delivery of services, can that same £1 be used, to also produce a wider benefit to the community”.

What is Social Value?
"social value refers to wider non-financial
impacts of programmes, organisations and
interventions, including the wellbeing of
individuals and communities, social capital and the
environment. These are typically described as 'soft‘
outcomes, mainly because they are difficult to
quantify and measure.“
