Briefing Notes
Briefing | Facts | Methodology | SummaryResearch Sandwell and its partners have scheduled publication of a series of briefing notes, fact sheets and methodology briefs. Briefing notes are in-depth explorations of a particular topic, aimed at policy makers and interested members of the public who want to delve into the detail of a particular issue. Factsheets are statistical digests with minimal interpretation, but plenty of useful figures around a topic. Finally, methodology notes focus on research methods and upcoming studies which may be of interest to our website users.
Over the coming months, we will continue to develop a programme of publications on a series of issues relevant to workers and residents in Sandwell. If you have a specific issue you'd like to see addressed in one of these notes, please get in touch with us, using our contact details.
