SFHA toolkit to help housing sector measure impact
SFHA has created a toolkit to help housing associations to understand, measure, and demonstrate their social impact.
The Scottish Federation of Housing Associations (SFHA), has created a toolkit to help housing associations and co-operatives to measure and increase the social value they create in the communities in which they operate.
This report demonstrates how housing associations and co-operatives can measure the social and economic value of their work and evidence of how it aligns with the Scottish Government’s National Performance Framework.
One of the key recommendations was to further develop an understanding of social value as an approach to measuring impact locally. In order to support the sector to do this, SFHA has produced the Social Value Toolkit to enable member associations to increase their ability to understand, measure and demonstrate their impact.

The aim is for the toolkit to be part of the process for the sector to continue to develop good practice and disseminate the shared learning outcomes.
Given the importance of increasing the affordable housing supply in Scotland, this toolkit will play a part in our ability to demonstrate the part that SFHA members continue to play in supporting our communities to build our social and economic recovery.
