Official statistics announcement

Local Alcohol Profiles for England (LAPE): July 2020 update

This update of the Local Alcohol Profiles for England (LAPE) tool will include new data for the following indicators: quarterly admission episodes for alcohol-related conditions (narrow); quarterly admission episodes for alcohol-related conditions (broad). The tool brings together available indicators at England and local authority level on the impact of alcohol with links to further resources. The aim of the profile is to provide information for local government, health organisations, commissioners and other agencies to monitor the impact of alcohol on local communities, and to monitor the services and initiatives that have been put in place to prevent and reduce the harmful impact of alcohol.

Statistics release cancelled

As the demand increases for statistics and data to measure the impact of the COVID19 pandemic, Public Health England is focussing efforts on priority analysis and statistics. In line with guidance from the Office for Statistics Regulation, the decision has therefore been made to suspend updates to LAPE until December 2020. We will keep this under review.
