We are subject to both the Data Protection Act/GDPR and the Freedom of Information Act and will willingly deal with requests for information when received (although our website contains comprehensive information about the issues we are dealing with).
Please note that we must reserve the right to reject requests for information relating to individuals or that are otherwise confidential, or where we are not the holder or provider of the information.

The National Health Service holds extensive information about people's health, some of which is made available anonymously to research organisations to help with planning for future health needs.
