Find relevant social care data

Social care datasets are gathered in one site to be accessible to social care experts and non-experts alike.

Search and filter functions help you find datasets which have collected data on topics you are interested in.

The Catalogue of Social Care Data collects and collates information about social care data from UK studies in one site to encourage:

• The use of existing social care data and comparisons across datasets
• The filling of research gaps which might have escaped notice due to the fragmented nature of social care data
• Harmonisation of UK social care data (including increased use of relevant standard measures)​
• Researchers from other fields to use social care data (leading to increased cross-specialism discoveries)
