Data about young people’s health to use in your day to day work.

The AYPH Youth Health Data Hub brings together publicly available data on young people’s health, health service use and health inequalities from a wide range of sources. We extract data specifically relating to the 10-24 age group.

You will also find links to other resources and sources of data to help you understand more about the key issues facing this age group.

“I think it’s important to have data about health because if you know what’s more likely to give you certain illnesses, then if you can prevent it, it might be better than trying to live with it and having to take medication for it.”
