Developing an assessment tool to measure the outcomes of social prescribing of healthy food
This project will develop a tool which can measure, over time, a range of potential benefits from social prescribing of healthy food. The tool will support WellFed Cornwall to measure health benefits for individuals, such as reduced risk of type 2 diabetes and improved wellbeing. It will also evaluate wider benefits for society, such as reduced demand on the health care system or lower carbon emissions.
