Homelessness: attitudes to healthcare data for planning and research

Working with Groundswell and the Thames Valley Surrey Secure Data Environment (TVS SDE), this report presents views on health and care data from people with lived experience of homelessness. The report explores how health and care data is perceived and how daily survival, past experiences of services and trust shape attitudes to data use. The findings reinforce that trust in data cannot be separated from trust in care. The report and accompanying animation highlight the importance of transparency, consent, dignity and clear communication, and will help inform the design of the TVS SDE.
