AB  - The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to longer waiting lists for people seeking to 
      access mental health services. The NHS Five Year Forward View encourages the 
      development of empowerment-based social prescribing interventions to supplement 
      existing mental health programmes. Based in South Wales, EmotionMind Dynamic 
      (EMD) is a lifestyle coaching programme that supports individuals suffering from 
      anxiety or depression. In this evaluation of lifestyle coaching, a mixed-method 
      social return on investment (SROI) methodology was used to value quantitative and 
      qualitative data from face-to-face and online participants. Data collection took 
      place between June 2021 and January 2022. Participants included both 
      self-referred clients and those referred from health services. Mental wellbeing 
      data were collected at baseline and at the end of the programme using the short 
      Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale (SWEMWBS) and the General Self-Efficacy 
      Scale (GSES). Baseline and follow-up data were available for 15 face-to-face 
      participants and 17 online clients. Wellbeing valuation quantified and valued 
      outcomes from participants. Results indicated that for every GBP 1 invested, 
      lifestyle coaching generated social values ranging from GBP 4.12-GBP 7.08 for 
      face-to-face clients compared with GBP 2.37-GBP 3.35 for online participants. 
      Overall, lifestyle coaching generated positive social value ratios for both 
      face-to-face and online clients.
