<p>As social prescribing is locally driven, different approaches to evaluation and
the measurement of outcomes have emerged across England. To encourage consistent data
gathering and reporting of outcomes, NHS England has worked with a wide range of stakeholders
to develop a Common Outcomes Framework for measuring the impact of social prescribing.
Working with a wide range of stakeholders, a consensus has been built for all social
prescribing connector schemes to measure a number of outcomes, including impact on
the person. This includes how a person’s wellbeing has improved, whether they are
less lonely and whether they feel more in control and have a better quality of life.</p><p>
</p><p>More information on the Common Outcomes Framework can be found in ‘Social prescribing
and community-based support Summary guide’, published by NHS England in January 2019
which is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="http://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/social-prescribing-community-based-support-summary-guide.pdf"
