Active Lives Small Area Estimates Tool

Below you can access tools, data and reports relating to our Active Lives Small Area Estimates project.

The project takes data from the annual Active Lives surveys for both adults and children and young people and uses statistical modelling to estimate results at the level of small geographical areas.

More specifically, the project produces estimates of the proportions of adults and children and young people who are active and inactive/less active at two small area levels: Lower Super Output Area and Middle Layer Super Output Area. It also estimates the proportion of adults taking part in sport.

The tool below can be used to create maps of the small area estimates data. To do this, please first select whether you wish to see the data in Middle Layer Super Output Areas (Middle SOA) or Lower Super Output Areas (Lower SOA).

You should then select if you wish to see data for adult or children and young people, before indicating if you wish to see data for all people or specific demographic groups. Finally, you should select the active partnership for which you wish to see data and any specific local authority areas.

For further guidance on using the mapping tool, please see the user guide listed below the tool.
