Deaths registered in England and Wales, provisional: week ending 28 Apr 2017

The provisional number of deaths registered in England and Wales in the week ending 28 April 2017 (week 17) was 10,908; this represents an increase of 1,264 deaths registered in comparison with the previous week (week 16).

The average number of deaths for the corresponding week over the previous 5 years was 10,246.

Personal well-being and sexual identity in the UK: 2013 to 2015

Those who identify as gay or lesbian, or bisexual report lower well-being than the UK average for all personal well-being measures. This difference is largest for feelings of anxiety.

This release examines how personal well-being ratings vary dependent on a person's sexual identity. Sexual identity is one part of the umbrella concept of sexual orientation, a recognised protected characteristic under the Equality Act (2010). Sexual identity does not necessarily reflect sexual attraction or sexual behaviour – these are separate concepts, which we currently do not measure.
