The Midlothian Profile 2008 (formerly Socio Demographic Profile) has now been launched.

This contains a wide range of statistics that can be used to help plan services, put together business plans, and back up funding applications etc.

Midlothian Profile 2008 (3.281MB .pdf)

The Community Planning Research and Information Group (CPRIG) that produces the Midlothian Profile would be interested to hear your comments on the profile, for example:

• have you used it (or previous versions)
• if so, what for? e.g. service planning, business planning, or funding applications
• what did you find most useful?
• what did you find least useful?
• what is missing that you would find useful?
• any other comments?

Please send these to MVA and we will forward to the CPRIG. Fax: 0131 663 9471, or use the contact form. The Profile can also be accessed from the Midlothian Council website http://www.midlothian.gov.uk (Community Planning).
