You asked
I would like to make a freedom of information request to understand the number of cases in the immediate area of BN13 from the 3rd March 2020 – today. Also the same tabled data for the wider Worthing, West Sussex Area. Should you feel there are any other statistics that show covid cases/deaths etc that would be incredibly helpful.

Thank you for your request.
The COVID-19 Infection Survey is a representative household survey which estimates the number of people testing positive for COVID-19, which started on 26 April 2020, therefore we do not have data prior to this date.
- You can find the percentage of people testing positive for COVID-19 by CIS sub-region, including Worthing, in the dataset accompanying our latest bulletin, on tab 1l.
- This breakdown by CIS sub-region is available from 15 November 2020. This can be found in the dataset accompanying the 20 November 2020 bulletin and onwards, on tab 1k.
All bulletins are available here and datasets available here.
You may also find the Government COVID-19 dashboard useful, where you can search for information such as number of confirmed cases by postcode. This is available here.
