Please could you provide the number of female deaths between age 50 and 66 in the UK since 2010?
We said
Thank you for your request.
We are responsible for the production of mortality and births statistics for births and deaths registered in England and Wales. National Records Scotland (NRS) and Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (NISRA) are responsible for statistics pertaining to Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively. Figures for deaths registered in Scotland and Northern Ireland can be found in the following links.
We have published annual figures for female deaths by single year of age covering the time period you require in table 2 of Death registrations (all causes) by sex and single year of age, England and Wales: 1974 to 2022
The most recent figures we hold for female deaths between the age of 50 and 66 in England and Wales can be found in table 3 of Deaths by age, sex, and month, England and Wales, January 2000 to August 2024. Annual deaths registered by five year age-group and sex for 2024 are available in table 3 of our Deaths registered summary statistics, England and Wales dataset.
If this does not meet your needs, we may be able to create a custom output. Information on the number of deaths by sex and age in England and Wales since 2010, along with other special extracts and tabulations of mortality data for England and Wales, are available to order, subject to legal frameworks, disclosure control, resources and agreements of costs.
