Annual data on deaths registered by age, sex and selected underlying cause of death. Tables also provide both mortality rates and numbers of deaths over time.

Live births, stillbirths and linked infant deaths occurring annually in England and Wales, and associated risk factors.

This statistic shows the number of deaths from cervical cancer in England from 2014 to 2021. In 2021, the number of deaths from cervical cancer reached 702, an increase from 681 deaths in 2020.

This dataset as reported to the Rural Payments Agency contains cattle that died at slaughterhouses, cattle born before 1 July 1996 which were not registered until 2000, death registrations that have passed initial Cattle Tracing System validation checks, applications received for cattle born in Great Britain. Attribution statement:

Provisional counts of the number of deaths registered in England and Wales, by age, sex, region and Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD), in the latest weeks for which data are available.

There were 2,784 infant deaths in the United Kingdom in 2021, compared with 2,620 in the previous year. The number of infant deaths in 2020 was the fewest in the provided time period, especially compared with 1900 when there were 163,470 infant deaths.

This statistic displays the mortality rate from deaths considered avoidable from drug-related disorders in Great Britain from 2014 to 2020. In 2020, Scotland had the highest avoidable mortality involving drug-related disorders in Great Britain with a rate of **** deaths per 100,000 population, while in that year England had the lowest rate of **.

Experimental analysis of ethnic differences in cause-specific mortality rates in England and Wales based on 2011 Census and death registrations.

There were 9.7 homicides for every million people in England and Wales in 2023/24, unchanged from the previous year, but a decline when compared to 2021/22, when the rate was 11.6. In 2022/23, the homicide rate among UK jurisdictions was highest in Scotland, at 10.4 homicides per million people, and lowest in Northern Ireland, which had a homicide rate of 6.8. Throughout this provided time period, the homicide rate for Scotland has declined substantially. From 2003/04 to 2013/14, Scotland had the highest homicide rate among UK jurisdictions, with a peak of 27 homicides per million people recorded in 2004/05. Uptick in violent crimes since the mid-2010s In 2002/03, there were 1,047 homicides in England and Wales, but by 2013/14 this had fallen to just 533, with similar declines also evident in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Unlike the in the latter two jurisdictions, however, there was a noticeable uptick in homicides in England and Wales from 2016/17 onwards, with 720 recorded in 2019/20. Additionally, there has been a surge in violence against the person offences in England and Wales, rising from around 600,000 in 2012/13, to more than 2.1 million ten years later in 2022/23. It is unclear what exactly is driving this trend, but in an attempt to reverse it, the UK government has started to increase the manpower and funding available to UK police forces. Struggles of the UK justice system Recent boosts to police funding come after almost a decade of austerity was imposed on most public services. Although some government departments were protected from this, the Ministry of Justice saw its budget decline from 9.1 billion pounds in 2009/10,to just 7.35 billion pounds in 2015/16. Although the Justice Budget has also increased recently, there are several signs that the system as a whole is under pressure. There is a significant backlog of cases at Crown Courts in England and Wales, with serious offences taking an average of almost two years to pass through the court system. Meanwhile, prisons are struggling with severe capacity issues, along with upticks in violence and self-harm.

This statistic shows the number of deaths of British (UK) tourists abroad from 2009 to 2014. 5,930 deaths were recorded in 2009/2010, with numbers rising during the following years. Though by 2013/2014 numbers had dropped to 4,110 deaths. However, this also has to do with new recording guidelines.

This dataset as reported to the Rural Payments Agency includes cattle slaughtered in England by breed code and type, sex, age group, country and premises type in July to December 2014. The agree groups being; cattle under 12 months include those aged 12 months exactly or under, those 12 to 15 months includes cattle aged between 12 months and 1 day and 15 months exactly etc., over 72 months includes cattle aged between 72 months and 1 day or over Attribution statement:

Age-standardised rate of mortality from oral cancer (ICD-10 codes C00-C14) in persons of all ages and sexes per 100,000 population.RationaleOver the last decade in the UK (between 2003-2005 and 2012-2014), oral cancer mortality rates have increased by 20% for males and 19% for females1Five year survival rates are 56%. Most oral cancers are triggered by tobacco and alcohol, which together account for 75% of cases2. Cigarette smoking is associated with an increased risk of the more common forms of oral cancer. The risk among cigarette smokers is estimated to be 10 times that for non-smokers. More intense use of tobacco increases the risk, while ceasing to smoke for 10 years or more reduces it to almost the same as that of non-smokers3. Oral cancer mortality rates can be used in conjunction with registration data to inform service planning as well as comparing survival rates across areas of England to assess the impact of public health prevention policies such as smoking cessation.References:(1) Cancer Research Campaign.

This statistic displays the mortality rate from cardiovascular diseases considered avoidable in Great Britain from 2014 to 2020. Every country in Great Britain had a higher avoidable mortality rate in 2020 compared to 2019. With an avoidable mortality rate involving cardiovascular disease of **** deaths per 100,000 population in 2020, Scotland had the highest rate in the UK.

This publication of the SHMI relates to discharges in the reporting period October 2013 to September 2014. The SHMI is the ratio between the actual number of patients who die following hospitalisation at the trust and the number that would be expected to die on the basis of average England figures, given the characteristics of the patients treated there. It covers all deaths reported of patients who were admitted to non-specialist acute trusts in England and either die while in hospital or within 30 days of discharge. To help users of the data understand the SHMI, trusts have been categorised into bandings indicating whether a trust's SHMI is 'higher than expected', 'as expected' or 'lower than expected'. Further background information and supporting documents are available on the SHMI homepage (see Related Links).
