What is the UK Data Service?
� A comprehensive resource funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC)� A single point of access to a wide range of secondary social
science data � Support, training and guidance
![Page 5: Social data and the third sector: skills, tools and evidence€¦ · Social Surveys and the Third Sector Services: Improving outcomes for marginalised groups, reducing inequalities,](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050307/5f6fe1f1bd488c376910b870/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Workshop objectives
� Promote UKDS data and resources to third sector users.� Increase understanding of how data can be used within a variety of
organisations and settings.� Support you to access relevant data.� Enable you to produce evidence by enhancing data knowledge and
skills.
![Page 6: Social data and the third sector: skills, tools and evidence€¦ · Social Surveys and the Third Sector Services: Improving outcomes for marginalised groups, reducing inequalities,](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050307/5f6fe1f1bd488c376910b870/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Social Surveys and the Third Sector
� Services: Improving outcomes for marginalised groups, reducing inequalities, providing a range of support to those most in need.� Funding: relies on demonstrating the need and the potential impact
of an intervention. � UKDS: Social survey and census data can help provide context and
demonstrate where services are most needed.� Many third sector organisations are small, often there is no dedicated
research team. Often it may fall to the people delivering the services to also provide the evidence of need and impact.
![Page 7: Social data and the third sector: skills, tools and evidence€¦ · Social Surveys and the Third Sector Services: Improving outcomes for marginalised groups, reducing inequalities,](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050307/5f6fe1f1bd488c376910b870/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Our main data types� Aggregate Data� International macrodata � country level time series data� Census tabular data
� Microdata� UK surveys (e.g. Labour Force Survey)� Census microdata� International comparative surveys (e.g. European Social Survey)� Business data
� Other data� Mixed methods data � Qualitative data

Why use social survey data?
� Large datasets, findings generalizable to the population� Quantifiable evidence� Explain a social problem� Provides context and justify the need for services
Can be used alongside other evidence from project delivery.
