Great synthesis of a suite of papers I was involved in, examining personal deprivation vs place deprivation - increasingly important as control is devolved out to ICBs and local health & care decisions are made based on geographic measures of deprivation
Our recent @ESRC funded project used @ONS Longitudinal Study data to understand the impact of the 'person' or the 'place' on measures of deprivation. As part of their #LinkingOurLives blog the team at @ucl have written a post - check it out here 👇
