This dataset, titled "Health and Lifestyle Survey Data," contains a collection of personal health records and demographic information from a survey of individuals. The data is structured with 24 distinct columns, providing insights into various aspects of the respondents' lives, including their personal habits, health conditions, and preferences.

The dataset includes the following key categories of information:

Demographics: Includes basic information such as Name, Gender, Age Group, Profession, and Region/Locality.

Lifestyle and Habits: Features data on Smoking Habit, Alcohol Consumption, Physical Activity Level, Fast Food Consumption Frequency, Sleep Duration, Sleep Issues, Diet Type, and Water Intake per Day.

Health and Wellness: Details Current Health Conditions, Common Regional Health Concerns, Access to Clean Water & Sanitation, Pollution Exposure Area, Mental Health Frequency, Healthcare Access Method, and Symptoms.

Other Information: Includes Preferred Language for Chatbot and Preferred Platform, which can be used to understand communication preferences. The Blood group and Particular disease fields provide specific medical information.

This dataset is suitable for academic research in public health, sociology, and data analysis. It can be used to study the correlations between lifestyle choices and health outcomes, identify prevalent health issues in specific regions, and analyze healthcare access patterns. The data is presented in a clear, organized format, making it easy for researchers to perform various statistical analyses and generate new insights into community health trends.

Following a number of feasibility studies and pilot surveys carried out in 1978, the first Health and Lifestyle Survey (HALS1) (held at the UKDA under SN 2218), funded by the Health Promotion Research Trust, was carried out in 1984-1985 on a random sample of the population of England, Scotland and Wales. A follow-up survey, HALS2, was conducted in 1991-1992. Ethical approval for the initial pilot studies was obtained locally, and ethical approval for the main HALS surveys was received from the BMA Ethical Committee before the launch of each survey.

The first survey, HALS1, was designed as a unique attempt to describe the self-reported health, attitudes to health and beliefs about causes of disease in relation to measurements of health (e.g. blood pressure and lung function) and lifestyle in adults of all ages and circumstances living in their own homes in all parts of Great Britain. It also examined the distribution of, and the relationship between, physical and mental health, health-related behaviour (diet, exercise, smoking and alcohol consumption) and social circumstances. Following completion of HALS1, the respondents were 'flagged' with the Office for National Statistics (ONS) National Health Service register at Southport,so that notification of deaths and copies of death certificates of respondents were provided to the HALS1 team. (Note that at the time of HALS1 and 2, ONS was known as the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys (OPCS).)

At the time of HALS1, a repeat survey was not foreseen, so no attempt was made to retain contact with the respondents to HALS1. However, when funding again became available from the Health Promotion Research Trust, as many of the respondents to HALS1 were traced as possible, and re-surveyed for HALS2 (held under SN 3279), which was conducted in 1991-1992. The principal aims of HALS2 were to examine the changes over seven years in the health and circumstances of the surviving respondents of HALS1.

A further HALS dataset is held under SN 6339, which includes deaths and causes of death, and registrations of cancer morbidity and mortality for HALS respondents, currently up to June 2009.

The Opinions and Lifestyle Survey (OPN) is an omnibus survey that collects data on a range of subjects commissioned by both the ONS internally and external clients (limited to other government departments, charities, non-profit organisations and academia).

Data are collected from one individual aged 16 or over, selected from each sampled private household. Personal data include data on the individual, their family, address, household, income and education, plus responses and opinions on a variety of subjects within commissioned modules.

The questionnaire collects timely data for research and policy analysis evaluation on the social impacts of recent topics of national importance, such as the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the cost of living, on individuals and households in Great Britain.

From April 2018 to November 2019, the design of the OPN changed from face-to-face to a mixed-mode design (online first with telephone interviewing where necessary). Mixed-mode collection allows respondents to complete the survey more flexibly and provides a more cost-effective service for customers.

In March 2020, the OPN was adapted to become a weekly survey used to collect data on the social impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on the lives of people of Great Britain. These data are held in the Secure Access study, SN 8635, ONS Opinions and Lifestyle Survey, 2019-2023: Secure Access. Other Secure Access OPN data cover modules run at various points from 1997-2019, on Census religion (SN 8078), cervical cancer screening (SN 8080), contact after separation (SN 8089), contraception (SN 8095), disability (SNs 8680 and 8096), general lifestyle (SN 8092), illness and activity (SN 8094), and non-resident parental contact (SN 8093).

From August 2021, as coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions were lifting across Great Britain, the OPN moved to fortnightly data collection, sampling around 5,000 households in each survey wave to ensure the survey remains sustainable.

The OPN has since expanded to include questions on other topics of national importance, such as health and the cost of living.

ONS Opinions and Lifestyle Survey, 2019-2025: Secure Access

The aim of the COVID-19 Module within this study was to help understand the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on people, households and communities in Great Britain. It was a weekly survey initiated in March 2020, and since August 2021, as COVID-19 restrictions were lifted, the survey has moved to fortnightly data collection, sampling around 5,000 households in each survey wave. The study allows the breakdown of impacts by at-risk age, gender and underlying health condition. The samples are randomly selected from those that had previously completed other ONS surveys (e.g., Labour Market Survey, Annual Population Survey). From each household, one adult is randomly selected but with unequal probability: younger people are given a higher selection probability than older people because of under-estimation in the samples available for the survey.

The study also includes data for the Internet Access Module from 2019 onwards. Data from this module for previous years are available as End User Licence studies within GN 33441. Also included are data from the Winter Lifestyle Survey for January and February 2023.

Latest edition information

For the twelfth edition (November 2025), data and documentation for the main OPN survey for waves to EC to FD-FE (January 2024 - February 2025) have been added. Data and documentation for the Childcare Options Module (July to November 2019 and January - February 2020) have also been added.

Opinions and Lifestyle Survey is an omnibus survey collecting data of subjects commissioned by both internal ONS and external clients. It contains indicators to understand the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on people, households and communities.

‘Fulfilling Potential’ is a cross-government strategy for encouraging closer working to empower disabled people to achieve their full potential. The ‘Outcomes and Indicators Framework’ was developed to measure progress towards this vision.

This is the first official statistics publication to use data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) Opinions and Lifestyle Survey to measure a number of indicators in the framework. It covers 2013 data from the employment, health and wellbeing, choice and control and inclusive communities themes.

Findings show that:

• attitudes towards disabled people in the workplace are generally positive
• around three quarters of disabled people said they did not experience any difficulties in using transport
• the majority of people think of disabled people as the same as everybody else

The Opinions and Lifestyle Survey (OPN) is an omnibus survey collecting data on a range of subjects commissioned by both internal Office for National Statistics (ONS) and external clients (limited to; other government departments, charities, non-profit organisations and academia). Data is collected from 1 adult selected from each sampled private household. Personal data include person, family, address, household, income, education plus responses and opinions on a variety of subjects within commissioned modules. The dataset includes a standard set of demographic variables and a single commissioned module.

In March 2020, the OPN was adapted to become a weekly survey used to collect data on the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on day-to-day life in Great Britain. From 25 August 2021, as COVID-19 restrictions began to be lifted across Great Britain, the OPN moved to a fortnightly data collection with the sample size at around 5,000 households in each period to help ensure the survey remains sustainable.

Prior to the changes in frequency to the OPN survey during the coronavirus pandemic, there had been on-going improvements to the OPN. In recent years, work has been undertaken to change the design of the OPN from a face-to-face survey to a mixed mode design (online first with telephone follow-up). Mixed mode collection allows respondents to complete the survey more flexibly and provides a more cost-effective service for customers.

The questionnaire collects timely data for research and policy analysis evaluation into the impact that the coronavirus pandemic has had on individuals and households in Great Britain.

The Opinions and Lifestyle Survey (OPN) is an omnibus survey that collects data from respondents in Great Britain. Information is gathered on a range of subjects, commissioned both internally by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) and by external clients (other government departments, charities, non-profit organisations and academia).

One individual respondent, aged 16 or over, is selected from each sampled private household to answer questions. Data are gathered on the respondent, their family, address, household, income and education, plus responses and opinions on a variety of subjects within commissioned modules. Each regular OPN survey consists of two elements. Core questions, covering demographic information, are asked together with non-core questions that vary depending on the module(s) fielded.

The OPN collects timely data for research and policy analysis evaluation on the social impacts of recent topics of national importance, such as the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the cost of living. The OPN has expanded to include questions on other topics of national importance, such as health and the cost of living.
