Details

Local Health contains indicators related to:

  • population and demographic factors, including age, sex and deprivation
  • health outcomes
  • wider determinants of health, including housing and living environment

It presents data for middle super output areas (MSOAs), electoral wards, clinical commissioning groups (CCGs), local authorities, and England as a whole.

The tool allows users to map data and provides spine charts and reports for small areas. Users can also define their own geographies and add their own data.

As in previous years this update has also been published on the Fingertips web platform, providing users with additional options for presenting and visualising data.

This update contains:

  • 47 indicators updated with data for the latest available time period and the latest available boundaries
  • 13 indicators with no new source data have been updated to new ward and CCG 2021 boundaries
  • an update of wards and CCGs to 2021 boundaries – this includes those indicators for which more recent data is not available

See the attached ‘Local Health: indicator updates, August 2022’ document for a full list of the available indicators, geographies and any other changes in this release.
