relating to a local area. They include information abut the
population and the economic, environmental and social circumstances

understand more about the quality of life within a chosen area.
They can be used alongside other performance information and
consultation with the community to develop services and shape
priorities within local areas.

and allow us to identify inequalities and issues within an area.
