Lankelly Chase with Heriot-Watt University released the most robust research to date on severe and multiple disadvantage in England. This 2015 report draws together previously separate datasets from homelessness, offending and substance misuse treatment systems. It also takes into account available data around mental health and poverty. It delivers the most comprehensive statistics on people facing severe and multiple disadvantage: where they live, what their lives are like, how effectively they are supported by services, and the economic implications of the disadvantages they face.
According to the report, Nottingham has the 8th highest prevalence of multiple disadvantage in England and Derby is 13th.
