Introduction
Life expectancy is one of the main indicators for health inequalities. It has been set as the overarching work stream for tackling health inequalities in Birmingham by the Health and Wellbeing Partnership (BHWP).
This Ward Profile series aims to:
• Provide a detailed ward level picture of local health inequality context.
• Describe life expectancy trend in each target ward.
• Investigate leading conditions that cause deaths locally, to provide local focus for each target ward.
• Suggest future area / factors for extended research.

2. Local context: demographics and deprivation This section describes population demographics and deprivation in Bournville, in order to provide a local context for life expectancy inequalities. Comparisons are made with Birmingham and England.
2.1. Age and sex distribution The population of Bournville is estimated to be 25,524. This represents 2.53% of the population of Birmingham. Approximately 47.1% (12,029) are male and 52.9% are female (13,495). These estimations are based on ONS mid-year population estimates for 2006. The population pyramid (Figure 1.1) shows the age and sex distributions.

2.2. Ethnicity
Ethnicity has some influences in terms of what kind of illness an individual could develop through their life. Thus, ethnicity analysis becomes a requirement in order to target the health of vulnerable people. Table 1.1 shows the ethnicity distribution in the Bournville population, compared with Birmingham and England.
• The % column of Table 1.1 represents the percentage of the total population that fit into that ethnic group. The N* column shows the quantity of people in thousands that are from each group, for the ward, city and nationally.
• About a tenth (9.9%) of the population belong to non-white ethnicity groups, Pakistanis represent 1.23%, Indians 1.75% and Black Caribbeans 1.94%.
• The proportion of BME groups (9.9%) is lower than for Birmingham and England (11.3%).

2.3. Deprivation
According to Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2007 published by ONS, Bournville is the 32nd most deprived electoral ward (out of 40) in Birmingham with an overall IMD score of 22.711.
Figure 1.2 shows SOAs in Bournville by IMD quintile, 2007. Most of the area covered by Bournville is in the least and second most deprived SOAs in Birmingham. Table 1.2 shows the area covered by the ward and population density.

2.4. Lifestyle
Table 1.3 provides a summary of lifestyle indicators in Bournville, in comparison with Birmingham and England. Data presented here are from the synthetic estimates of healthy lifestyle behaviours produced by the NHS Information Centre.
• Compared with the Birmingham average, Bournville has a higher percentage of people who binge drink (1.8 percentage points higher) and smoke (1.4 percentage points higher) but a lower proportion who are obese (3.8 percentage points lower)
• A smaller percentage of people eat healthily in Bournville (19.8%) than both in Birmingham (25.1%) and nationally (26.3%).
• Table 1.3 shows that binge drinking amongst adults in Bournville needs to be investigated further, equally, healthier eating needs to be promoted more strongly in the ward along with the need to reduce smoking.

3. Life expectancy trend
There is evidence that life expectancy is one of the most important determinants for health inequalities across the population. This section gives an overview of life expectancy at birth in terms of trend and variations in different groups and communities.
Figure 2.1 shows the trend in male life expectancy in Bournville from 1995/97 to 2005/07 on a 3-year basis, in comparison with Birmingham and England. Male life expectancy has increased over this time. However, it is still lower than England and therefore needs strategies developed to continue this improvement.

4. Infant mortality
In areas with high infant mortality rates, the life expectancy at birth is highly sensitive to the rate of death in the first few years of life. Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is calculated as the number of newborns dying under one year of age in every 1,000 live births during the year, excluding still births.
Figure 2.3 shows trends of IMR in Bournville, Birmingham, England and the most deprived quintile (i.e. 20%) Super Output Areas (SOAs) in Birmingham (based on Lower Super Output Area level IMD score 2007), from 1999/01 to 2005/07.

Figure 2.3 Infant mortality rates per 1,000 births in Bournville Birmingham, England and the most deprived quintile in Birmingham, 1999-2007
As illustrated in Figure 2.3, in 2005/07, the IMR in Bournville is lower than in Birmingham and in England. The IMR for those in the most deprived quintile of Birmingham is higher than the Birmingham average.
• From 1999/01 to 2005/07, the IMR has decreased by 32%. Birmingham’s IMR has also decreased.
• Over this time, the gap in IMR between the most deprived quintile SOAs in Birmingham and Bournville has increased from 5.4 to 5.6 per 1,000. The ward data has shown a large drop in the final year.
• During the same period, the IMR in England has decreased smoothly from 5.6 to 4.9 per 1,000 (at about 0.1 per 1,000 per year). Bournville’s IMR has switched from 0.5 per 1,000 above England to 0.7 per 1,000 below.

5. Mortality rates on selected diseases
Age-specific mortality rate is used to calculate life expectancy at birth. Disease specific standardised mortality rates are investigated, in order to identify leading diseases that contribute to the overall mortality rates in Bournville.
Table 3.1 shows directly standardised mortality rates for selected conditions in 2005/07. Percentage of each disease’s rate out of the overall rate is also shown here. Cancers, Circulatory diseases and Coronary heart disease are the major killers. They make up more than 78.9% of the overall DSR. This percentage is consistent with both city and local PCT levels, which vary from 72% to 82%.
