London Fuel Poverty Risk Indicators, Wards

<p>These <a href="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/London-Ward-Fuel-Poverty-Scores.xls">fuel poverty risk indicators</a> provide users with a nuanced picture of the impact of various risk factors, exacerbating factors and indicators for fuel poverty. It was developed with the Assembly Health and Public Services Committee in their investigation into fuel poverty in London. The <a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/gla_migrate_files_destination/Fuel%20poverty%20-%20Final%20report.pdf">Committee's report</a> explains how the tool could be used strategically to help organisations target specific wards that are at high risk of fuel poverty. Appendix 4 in the report set out the rationale for the risk factors present in the tool.</p> <p>Users can adjust the weighting of the indicators to show their relative significance. Isolating specific indicators could help organisations determine what type of support is likely to have greatest impact in an area. For example, wards with a low score for cavity wall insulation would indicate wards that could be targeted for promoting uptake of cavity wall insulation.</p> <p>Read Victoria Borwick's blog "<a href="/blog/using-public-data-tackle-fuel-poverty-can-you-help/">Using public data to tackle fuel poverty - can you help?</a>"</p> <p>The fuel poverty scores measure risk of fuel poverty based on 12 indicators. The England and Wales average each year is 0. Scores below 0 are more likely to be at risk from fuel poverty according to these measures.</p> <p>The indicators are:</p> <p><strong>Housing </strong><br /> Dwellings without central heating<br /> Cavity walls that are uninsulated<br /> Lofts with less than 150mm insulation</p> <p><strong>Health </strong><br /> Health Deprivation &amp; Disability domain (ID2010)<br /> Standardised Mortality Ratio<br /> Incapacity Benefit claimant rate</p> <p><strong>Older people </strong><br /> People aged 60 and over<br /> Older people claiming pension credit</p> <p><strong>Worklessness </strong><br /> Unemployment</p> <p><strong>Poverty</strong><br /> Income Support claimant rate<br /> Child Poverty rates<br /> Households classified 'fuel poor'</p> <p>The Excel tool includes a ward map, charts and rankings.</p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> Users must enable macros when prompted upon opening the spreadsheet (or reset security to medium/low) for the map to function. The rest of the tool will function without macros.</p> <p><img src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/fp-dashboard-map.jpg" alt="Excel Tool" /></p><p><a href="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/London-Ward-Fuel-Poverty-Scores.xls">燃料贫困风险指标（fuel poverty risk indicators）</a>可为用户呈现各类影响燃料贫困的风险因素、加剧因素及相关指标的详实细致的影响图景。本工具由伦敦议会卫生与公共服务委员会在其针对伦敦地区燃料贫困的专项调研中合作开发。<a href="https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/gla_migrate_files_destination/Fuel%20poverty%20-%20Final%20report.pdf">委员会最终报告</a>阐释了该工具的战略应用路径，可帮助相关机构精准锁定高燃料贫困风险的伦敦选区。报告附录4详细说明了本工具所纳入的各项风险因素的设计理论依据。</p><p>用户可自主调整各项指标的权重，以体现其相对重要性。通过隔离分析特定指标，机构可判断何种类型的帮扶措施对某一区域的减贫效果最为显著。例如，空腔墙保温（cavity wall insulation）评分较低的伦敦选区，可作为推广空腔墙保温措施的重点目标区域。</p><p>请参阅维多利亚·博里克（Victoria Borwick）的博客《<a href="/blog/using-public-data-tackle-fuel-poverty-can-you-help/">利用公共数据应对燃料贫困——你能伸出援手吗？</a>》</p><p>本燃料贫困评分体系基于12项指标对燃料贫困风险进行量化评估。英格兰与威尔士的年度基准分值为0，依据该评估体系，分值低于0的区域更易面临燃料贫困风险。</p><p>本次纳入评估的指标分为以下类别：</p><p><strong>住房类</strong><br />无集中供暖的住宅<br />未做保温处理的空腔墙<br />保温层厚度不足150毫米的阁楼</p><p><strong>健康类</strong><br />健康剥夺与残疾维度（ID2010）<br />标准化死亡率<br />残障津贴申领率</p><p><strong>老年群体类</strong><br />60岁及以上人口占比<br />申领养老金信贷的老年人口占比</p><p><strong>失业类</strong><br />失业率</p><p><strong>贫困类</strong><br />收入支持补助金申领率<br />儿童贫困率<br />被归类为燃料贫困的家庭占比</p><p>本Excel工具包含伦敦选区地图、数据图表与排名榜单。</p><p><strong>注意：</strong>用户在打开该电子表格时，需按照系统提示启用宏（或将文档安全级别重置为中/低），方可使地图功能正常运行。工具的其余功能无需启用宏即可正常使用。</p><p><img src="https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/fp-dashboard-map.jpg" alt="Excel工具" /></p>
