Rapid Evidence Assessment of Wellbeing Impact Evaluations using ONS4 Personal Wellbeing Measures

The purpose of this Rapid Evidence Assessment (REA) is to identify, collate and appraise wellbeing impact evaluations that have used the Office for National Statistics (ONS) Personal Wellbeing Measures.

Solutions for Public Health was commissioned by the What Works Centre for Wellbeing to produce
this REA.

The REA represents an initial mapping exercise to explore the use of the ONS4 measures by government, academics, funders, and the public, Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) sectors when evaluating pilots and programmes to improve wellbeing.

This report summarises the approach used for the identification and selection of relevant impact evaluations and discusses the key findings and limitations.
