OCF – Witney Area – Needs Analysis

The parliamentary constituency of Witney has a similar age demographic to the England average, but with a noticeably older population. It is generally less deprived, however, there are pockets of greater deprivation and there are significant number of individuals, both young and old, who require assistance.  This Needs Analysis Summary reports on and maps demographics plus some key indices of COVID-19, including vulnerable groups, community needs and geographical barriers.  A list of the grants awarded from our Coronavirus: Community Resilience Fund is also given. 

The report was produced using community mapping and reporting tool Local Insight. This tool has been developed by OCSI and makes use of open data to help councils and community organisations make informed funding and policy decisions. It brings in up-to-date data drawn from the Census, the Department for Work and Pensions, deprivation indices and other sources.
