Have you ever wondered what we do at the ONS?
Our video, "A simple guide to data, statistics and the ONS", shows you how we collect and use the day-to-day data that surround us to produce official statistics.
The difference that data make
Every day, decisions are made that have an impact on the things that matter to all of us. To make those decisions, people and organisations need up-to-date, reliable information. For the most part, this information comes in the form of data. At the ONS, we collect and use these data safely and securely to create official statistics.
