Thank you for your Freedom of Information request asking for population numbers, population age ranges especially school age children and retired people, school places available, house numbers, doctors or NHS capacity as well as any other easy to find information about the village of Kempsey, Worcester.

While we do not estimate populations at village level, you may find the Nomis website useful as it enables you to tailor your enquiry to specific areas for which you require data.

To access these data, go on the Nomis website. Select 'Query Data' within the data downloads box, then select 'Population estimates/projections', then 'Population estimates - small area by single year of age'. Then select 'Geography' from the box on the left-hand side, then '2011 Output Areas', then select 'Malvern Hills' from the drop-down list at the top, then tick 'use maps to select areas' to the right-hand side of the drop-down list. On the map you can then zoom in on the area and select the output areas which you consider make up the Kempsey area. You can also select your data by age and sex if required, you can then download your data.

These data are available from 2011, and 2020 estimates are the most recent estimates available on the Nomis website.

In order to find data regarding school places, you would need to contact your local education department at Worcestershire County Council.

I would suggest contacting NHS digital with regards to NHS capacity in your area.
