FOI REF: FOI-2023-1371

You asked

Please could you provide me with figures for weekly deaths for every year from 2010 to 2023, for 5-9 Yr olds, 10-14, and 15 to 19 year-olds, including sex for England and Wales separately.

We said

Thank you for your request. 

Figures for deaths occurring in each week from 2010 to 2022 by sex and 5 year age group for each region of England and Wales are available in the following link to a user requested dataset.

Please note that these data relate to deaths occurring each week rather than those registered each week and can be subject to registration delays. For more information please see our impact of registration delays bulletin here. 

Figures for deaths registered in each week from 2010 to 2023 by sex and age group along with other special extracts and tabulations of mortality data for England and Wales are available to order from our health data customer service team. Such services are subject to legal frameworks, resources and agreement of costs, in line with our charging policy. . If you would like to request this bespoke dataset, please contact Health.Data@ons.gov.uk to discuss your enquiry further.

As the information request for 2023 is reasonably accessible via another route, even if only accessible on payment, Section 21(2)(a) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) applies.
