This presentation will explore the use of linked administrative data, with a particular focus on the research possibilities offered by the Secure Anonymised Information Linkage (SAIL) Databank in Wales. It will provide an overview of the rich, securely linked data sources available – including health, social care, and education data – and demonstrate how these datasets can be used to generate impactful, policy relevant insights, about children, young people, and their families. Lucy will also outline other UK flagship datasets and training opportunities.
