Making change visible
Outcomes Star embeds outcomes measurement and learning within relational person-centred support, making change visible, understood and possible
The Journey of Change has no shortcuts
Are you supporting people one-to-one on a long term basis? Are you working in a holistic way to address multiple areas of a person’s life? If so, you’ll know the biggest shifts don’t happen overnight. Nor are they always the outcomes people can easily see and celebrate.
So we developed Outcomes Star: a whole-life framework to guide conversations with those you support and measure the often-invisible outcomes that matter most to them.

About you
Is Outcomes Star right for you?
Outcomes Star is much more than a data capture tool. It’s an approach that works best if you’re working in a long term, holistic way to address multiple areas of a person’s life. We’ve created this guide to help you explore whether Outcomes Star is right for your practice.
What makes Outcomes Star so effective?
- Practical training
A tool is only effective if it’s used correctly. That’s why all Outcomes Star licence holders must complete our core training programme. We’ve also developed supplementary training courses to help you develop your Star practice. Read more.
- Expert support
An Outcomes Star licence gives you access to so much more than the Stars themselves. You’ll also be paired with a regional coordinator who will always be available to help you implement the approach for maximum impact.
- Guiding the practice of change
At Outcomes Star we know how much of the work done by social practitioners goes unrecognised. Our goal is to support these people who make change happen with practical tools that guide the way, building a community of practice that makes change seen, understood and possible. Read about our mission.
