UK-wide data slides

The following series of slides present data items previously published in our report Avoidable Deaths (2006) but which were not included in our Annual Report. The findings are based on the period 2010-2020. Due to a reduction in our homicide programme, we only present general population homicide characteristics and the number of homicides by people in contact with mental health services. Homicide data for Northern Ireland are not included, due to small numbers.
