    Description

    This statistical release makes available the most recent Mental Health and Learning Disabilities Dataset (MHLDDS) final monthly data (October 2014) along with final data from September 2014. This publication presents a wide range of information about care delivered to users of NHS funded secondary mental health and learning disability services in England. The scope of the Mental Health Minimum Dataset (MHMDS) was extended to cover Learning Disability services from September 2014. Many people who have a learning disability use mental health services and people in learning disability services may have a mental health problem. This means that activity included in the new MHLDDS dataset cannot be distinctly divided into mental health or learning disability spells of care - a single spell of care may include inputs from either of both types of service. We will be working with stakeholders to define specific information and reporting requirements relating to specific services or groups of patients. Four new measures have been added to this release to help with interpretation of the data. At local level these contextual figures will provide an indication of the increased caseload that could be attributed to the extension of the dataset to cover LD services. Information on these measures can found in the Announcement of Change paper which accompanies this release. The Currencies and Payment file that forms part of this release is specifically limited to services in scope for currencies and payment in mental health services and remains unchanged. This information will be of particular interest to organisations involved in delivering secondary mental health and learning disability care to adults and older people, as it presents timely information to support discussions between providers and commissioners of services. The MHLDS Monthly Report also includes reporting by local authority for the first time. For patients, researchers, agencies, and the wider public it aims to provide up to date information about the numbers of people using services, spending time in hospital and subject to the Mental Health Act (MHA). Some of these measures are currently experimental analysis. The Currency and Payment (CaP) measures can be found in a separate machine-readable data file and may also be accessed via an on-line interactive visualisation tool that supports benchmarking. This can be accessed through the related links at the bottom of the page.

    Description

    Statistics on trips taken by disabled people are obtained from the National Travel Survey (NTS).

    In 2021:

    • disabled adults in England made 28% fewer trips than non-disabled adults
    • this difference was smaller amongst the 16 to 59 age range (18%) than amongst the over 60s (37%)
    • disabled adults in England made an average of 594 trips, compared to 821 for non-disabled adults

    Statistics on parking badges for disabled people (‘Blue Badges’) in England are obtained from the Blue Badge Digital Service (BBDS) database.

    As at 31 March 2022:

    • 2.44 million Blue Badges were held, an increase of 3.6% since March 2021
    • 4.3% of the population held a Blue Badge

    Between 1 April 2021 and 31 March 2022:

    • 1.04 million badges were issued, an increase of 212,000 badges (25.7%) on the previous year
    • this increase is likely to be at least in part due to the effects of the gradual easing of coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions on local authority processes and staffing
    • 42% of these were issued without further assessment

    Due to ongoing issues with data quality and completeness, and in order to reduce the burden of this collection on local authorities, data on Blue Badge prosecutions have not been collected for the year ending 31 March 2022.

    Area covered
    Wales, England
    Description

    This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents in households in England and Wales by disability, by general health, and by age. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

    Estimates for single year of age between ages 90 and 100+ are less reliable than other ages. Estimation and adjustment at these ages was based on the age range 90+ rather than five-year age bands. Read more about this quality notice.

    Area type

    Census 2021 statistics are published for a number of different geographies. These can be large, for example the whole of England, or small, for example an output area (OA), the lowest level of geography for which statistics are produced.

    For higher levels of geography, more detailed statistics can be produced. When a lower level of geography is used, such as output areas (which have a minimum of 100 persons), the statistics produced have less detail. This is to protect the confidentiality of people and ensure that individuals or their characteristics cannot be identified.

    Lower tier local authorities

    Lower tier local authorities provide a range of local services. There are 309 lower tier local authorities in England made up of 181 non-metropolitan districts, 59 unitary authorities, 36 metropolitan districts and 33 London boroughs (including City of London). In Wales there are 22 local authorities made up of 22 unitary authorities.

    Coverage

    Census 2021 statistics are published for the whole of England and Wales. However, you can choose to filter areas by:

    • country - for example, Wales
    • region - for example, London
    • local authority - for example, Cornwall
    • health area – for example, Clinical Commissioning Group
    • statistical area - for example, MSOA or LSOA

    Disability - Equality act disabled

    People who assessed their day-to-day activities as limited by long-term physical or mental health conditions or illnesses are considered disabled. This definition of a disabled person meets the harmonised standard for measuring disability and is in line with the Equality Act (2010).

    General health

    A person's assessment of the general state of their health from very good to very bad. This assessment is not based on a person's health over any specified period of time.

    Age (C)

    A person’s age on Census Day, 21 March 2021 in England and Wales. Infants aged under 1 year are classified as 0 years of age.

    The aim of this publication is to provide information about the key differences in healthcare between people with a learning disability and those without. It contains aggregated data on key health issues for people who are recorded by their GP as having a learning disability, and comparative data about a control group who are not recorded by their GP as having a learning disability. Six new indicators were introduced in the 2022-23 reporting year for patients with and without a recorded learning disability. These relate to: • Patients with an eating disorder • Patients with both an eating disorder and autism diagnosis • Patients with a diagnosis of autism who are currently treated with antidepressants More information on these changes can be found in the Data Quality section of this publication. Data has been collected from participating practices using EMIS and Cegedim Healthcare Systems GP systems.

Also available at LSOA, MSOA and Constituency levels.About the 2021 CensusThe Census takes place every 10 years and gives us a picture of all the people and households in England and Wales.Protecting personal dataThe ONS sometimes need to make changes to data if it is possible to identify individuals. This is known as statistical disclosure control. In Census 2021, they:

    Swapped records (targeted record swapping), for example, if a household was likely to be identified in datasets because it has unusual characteristics, they swapped the record with a similar one from a nearby small area. Very unusual households could be swapped with one in a nearby local authority. Added small changes to some counts (cell key perturbation), for example, we might change a count of four to a three or a five. This might make small differences between tables depending on how the data are broken down when they applied perturbation.For more geographies, aggregations or topics see the link in the Reference below. Or, to create a custom dataset with multiple variables use the ONS Create a custom dataset tool.Population valueThe value column represents All usual residents.The percentage shown is the value as a percentage of All usual residents within the given geography.

    Description

    The protected characteristics of disabled and non-disabled people in England and Wales, using Census 2021 data. Data estimates provided are as on Census Day, 21 March 2021.

    To ensure that individuals cannot be identified in the data, counts and populations have been rounded to the nearest 5, and counts under 10 have not been included. All figures are individually rounded. Totals may not sum exactly because of this rounding.

    Age groups are based on an individual's age on their last birthday, as of Census Day, 21 March 2021. The age groups used reflect the European Standard Population (2013).

    Age-standardised percentage

    The age-standardised percentage of disabled people is that which would have occurred if the observed age-specific percentage of disability had applied in the European Standard Population (ESP).

    Age-specific percentage

    Age-specific percentage is calculated for each age group:

    Mk = (dk / pk) x 100%

    where:

    Mk = percentage of disabled people in age group k

    dk = the number of disabled people in age group k

    pk = Census 2021 population in age group k

    k = age group

    Category

    The measures of disability, ethnic group, legal partnership status, religion or sexual orientation in Census 2021 enable different categorisations of responses to the question. These provide different levels of detail from the responses provided.

    The count is the number of usual residents in each category (Disabled, Non-disabled, Disabled; limited a lot, Disabled; limited a little, Non-disabled; with non-limiting condition, Non-disabled; no condition), sex, age group and geographic breakdown. To ensure that individuals cannot be identified in the data, counts and populations have been rounded to the nearest 5, and counts under 10 have not been included..

    Disability

    The definition of disability used in the 2021 Census is aligned with the definition of disability under the Equality Act (2010). A person is considered disabled if they self-report having a physical or mental health condition or illness that has lasted or is expected to last 12 months or more, and that this reduces their ability to carry out day-to-day activities. The detailed response categories are:

    • Non-disabled; no condition.
    • Non-disabled; with non-limiting condition.
    • Disabled; limited a little.
    • Disabled; limited a lot.

    Ethnic group

    The ethnic group that the person completing the census feels they belong to. This could be based on their culture, family background, identity, or physical appearance. There were two stages to the ethnic group question. The respondent identifies first through one of the following high-level options before selecting a tick-box:

    • Asian, Asian British, or Asian Welsh
    • Black, Black British, Black Welsh, Caribbean or African
    • Mixed or Multiple
    • White
    • Other ethnic group

    Following this, respondents could choose 1 out of 19 tick-box response categories, including write-in response options.

    Legal partnership status

    Classifies a person according to their legal marital or registered civil partnership status on Census Day, 21 March 2021. The six categories are:

    • Civil partnership.
    • Divorced or formerly in a civil partnership.
    • Married.
    • Never married and never registered a civil partnership.
    • Separated, but still legally married or still legally in a civil partnership.
    • Widowed or surviving partner from a civil partnership.

    Population

    The population is the number of usual residents of each sex, age group and geographic breakdown. These have been rounded.

    Religion

    The religion people connect or identify with (their religious affiliation), whether or not they practise or have belief in it. The nine categories are:

    • No religion.
    • Christian (including Church of England, Catholic, Protestant and all other Christian denominations).
    • Buddhist.
    • Hindu.
    • Jewish.
    • Muslim.
    • Sikh.
    • Other religion.
    • Not answered.

    Sexual orientation

    Sexual orientation is an umbrella term covering sexual identity, attraction, and behaviour. For an individual respondent, these may not be the same. The five categories are:

    • Straight or heterosexual.
    • Gay or lesbian.
    • Bisexual.
    • All other sexual orientations.
    • Not answered.

    Usual resident

    For Census 2021, a usual resident of the UK is anyone who, on census day, was in the UK and had stayed or intended to stay in the UK for a period of 12 months or more or had a permanent UK address and was outside the UK and intended to be outside the UK for less than 12 months.

    Description

    This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents aged 16 years and over in England and Wales by disability, by NS-SEC, and by age. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.

    As Census 2021 was during a unique period of rapid change, take care when using this data for planning purposes. Read more about this quality notice.

    Estimates for single year of age between ages 90 and 100+ are less reliable than other ages. Estimation and adjustment at these ages was based on the age range 90+ rather than five-year age bands. Read more about this quality notice.

    Area type

    Census 2021 statistics are published for a number of different geographies. These can be large, for example the whole of England, or small, for example an output area (OA), the lowest level of geography for which statistics are produced.

    For higher levels of geography, more detailed statistics can be produced. When a lower level of geography is used, such as output areas (which have a minimum of 100 persons), the statistics produced have less detail. This is to protect the confidentiality of people and ensure that individuals or their characteristics cannot be identified.

    Lower tier local authorities

    Lower tier local authorities provide a range of local services. There are 309 lower tier local authorities in England made up of 181 non-metropolitan districts, 59 unitary authorities, 36 metropolitan districts and 33 London boroughs (including City of London). In Wales there are 22 local authorities made up of 22 unitary authorities.

    Coverage

    Census 2021 statistics are published for the whole of England and Wales. However, you can choose to filter areas by:

    • country - for example, Wales
    • region - for example, London
    • local authority - for example, Cornwall
    • health area – for example, Clinical Commissioning Group
    • statistical area - for example, MSOA or LSOA

    Disability - Equality act disabled

    People who assessed their day-to-day activities as limited by long-term physical or mental health conditions or illnesses are considered disabled. This definition of a disabled person meets the harmonised standard for measuring disability and is in line with the Equality Act (2010).

    National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC)

    The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SEC) indicates a person's socio-economic position based on their occupation and other job characteristics.

    It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. NS-SEC categories are assigned based on a person's occupation, whether employed, self-employed, or supervising other employees.

    Full-time students are recorded in the "full-time students" category regardless of whether they are economically active.

    Age (B)

    A person’s age on Census Day, 21 March 2021 in England and Wales. Infants aged under 1 year are classified as 0 years of age. It is categorised as:

    • Aged 15 years and under
    • Aged 16 to 49 years
    • Aged 50 years and over

    Description

    Dataset population: Persons

    Age

    Age is derived from the date of birth question and is a person's age at their last birthday, at 27 March 2011. Dates of birth that imply an age over 115 are treated as invalid and the person's age is imputed. Infants less than one year old are classified as 0 years of age.

    Ethnic group

    Ethnic group classifies people according to their own perceived ethnic group and cultural background.

    This topic contains ethnic group write-in responses without reference to the five broad ethnic group categories, e.g. all Irish people, irrespective of whether they are White, Mixed/multiple ethnic groups, Asian/Asian British, Black/African/Caribbean/Black British or Other ethnic group, are in the Irish response category. This topic was created as part of the commissioned table processing.

    Long-term health problem or disability

    A long-term health problem or disability that limits a person's day-to-day activities and has lasted or is expected to last at least 12 months. This includes problems that are related to old age.

    People were asked to assess whether their daily activities were limited a lot or a little by such a health problem, or whether their daily activities were not limited at all.

    Sex

    The classification of a person as either male or female.
