Overview

Mosaic Public Sector – Kent and Medway groupings by location Mosaic Public Sector is a population segmentation tool, designed specifically for use by the public sector. It focuses on the needs of citizens and provides a detailed and accurate understanding of population location, their demographics, lifestyles and behaviours. Mosaic Public Sector provides a common currency that enables the same population to be viewed in the same way by all public bodies, thereby assisting joined-up government and partnership working. To help support the understanding of the population and their service needs, Mosaic Public Sector is linked to a number of specific public sector data sources from criminal justice, education, the environment and health, as well as central and local government. This gives a considerable insight into the UK population and their requirements enabling agencies to deliver better value for money by focussing services around the needs of the individual. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Health and Social Care Map – Tunbridge Wells 25

Overview

Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) The Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) measure relative deprivation for small geographical areas within England. The IMD combines information from seven domains (Income, Employment, Education, Skills and Training, Health Deprivation and Disability, Crime, Barriers to Housing and Services and Living Environment Deprivation) to produce an overall relative measure of deprivation. The small areas used are called Lower-layer Super Output Areas (LSOA), of which there are 32,844 in England. They are designed to be of a similar population size with an average of 1,500 residents each and are a standard way of dividing up the country. The number of LSOAs in an electoral ward can vary from one to five depending upon the original size of the electoral ward. For each map in this section, IMD scores have been split into local quintiles (5 equal parts) with the fifth quintile being the most deprived and the first being the least deprived. A population weighted approach has been taken, so that the LSOAs falling within each quintile represent 20% of the Kent population. Ward boundaries are also displayed on the deprivation maps, and wards containing a LSOA within the most deprived quintile have been identified.

Infant mortality

Trends in infant mortality can be difficult to analyse in small geographical regions due to lower numbers of deaths under one year of age.

The trend in Kent has been more varied but declined between 2005 and 2011 before increasing slightly then remaining steady for the past couple of years. At district level large fluctuations are seen due to the very small numbers involved.
