We play a crucial role in tracking the health of the nation. The scope of our research is broad, from general health and lifestyle studies to studies focusing on particular health issues or sections of the population. Findings from large-scale health surveys carried out in England, Scotland and Wales are used to improve the targeting of national health policies in each country.
We have a large body of work looking at the lifestyles of the nation from smoking, drinking and drug use to gambling and leisure.
