Values

Remember, not all measurements and valuations are created equal. MeasureUp offers various levels of accuracy, robustness, and rigour, helping you choose the right balance between ease of application and accuracy. Take look at our methodology to better understand the levels:

Each value is classified by the ONS wellbeing dimension it fits in, so ‘volunteering regularly’ comes under ‘what we do’ and is the second value under this dimension, therefore it is coded as WWD2.

Under each value you will find a description of the value, background sources, a ‘headline value’ including types of value included, a description of how to use the value at bronze, silver, gold, and gold+ levels, and mapping to the SDGs and PPN 06/20 Social Value Model MACs.

All values are rounded to the nearest 10, 100, or 1000. This is to reflect the indicative nature of bronze-level figures. More accuracy can be gained through progressively gathering actual evidence of social value, and calculating actual value based on that evidence.
