This dataset provides 2011 estimates that classify usual residents in United Kingdom by the number of hours of unpaid care they provide.  The estimates are as at census day, 27 March 2011.

This dataset provides 2011 estimates that classify usual residents in United Kingdom by the state of their general health.  The estimates are as at census day, 27 March 2011.

The health classification used related to the five tick boxes on the questionnaire.  These were changed from the three classifications available in table UV20 in 2001 to  improve harmonisation of census estimates with other sources of health data results.  

This information is used to allocate health resource and service provision, and to develop and monitor policy on the delivery of health care, the reduction of health inequalities and the assessment of progress towards improving the general health of the population.

General health refers to health over the 12 months prior to census day (27 March 2011).
