The Office for National Statistics (ONS) have created a toolkit of communication resources to help increase the public’s understanding of how data and statistics are used to benefit local communities.

This resource provides accessible introductory information to administrative data, including animations, a glossary and further reading to help inform the public of what administrative data is and how it can be utilised for public good.

ADR (Administrative Data Research) Northern Ireland, VOYPIC (Voice of Young People in Care have co-produced a report with care-experienced young people to showcase the value of administrative data for understanding the relationship between children’s social care contact and homelessness risk in Northern Ireland.
