Mental health dashboards

This page provides links to a number of dashboards. These are interactive visualisations containing data relating to mental health. These visualisations are mainly produced in Microsoft Power BI and allow users to interact with the data available.

We're keen to get feedback from users and interested parties to help us develop the mental health data hub. Please complete the short survey to let us know your views.

Please subscribe to our mental health information update to find out what's new on the data hub and to receive other mental health news from NHS Digital.
