Experts express concern for future of Health Survey for England

Study is not being stood down but will no longer be run by NHS England, government says

Public health experts have expressed concern for the future of a “vital” health survey, after the government said it would no longer be run by NHS England.

The Health Survey for England, launched in 1991, is an annual study that collects data from about 8,000 adults and 2,000 children across the country, through face-to-face interviews and questionnaires.
