A map to show all GP surgeries in England, looking at age and digital engagement. It is designed to help identify areas where there are more people who don’t tend to use digital tools and services, or who are not online. We’ve used NHS data on registration for online GP services to make the map.

Data and webpage information last updated January 2021.

Here's a listing of the contents of the data directory in my local repository. As you can see, the file sizes are quite large so I haven't uploaded this folder to GitHub.

library(dplyr)
tibble(files = list.files("data", recursive = TRUE)) %>% 
  mutate(size_mb = round(file.size(paste0("data/", files))/2^20))

# A tibble: 6 x 2
  files                                size_mb
  <chr>                                  <dbl>

2 ons_nspcl_data.Rds                        17
3 POMI_APR2020_to_APR2020.csv               11
