Notes
IMD scores offer a more complex and detailed view of deprivation, based on more factors than the Townsend index (Field 189). As IMD scores are calculated in different ways between England, Scotland and Wales, the UK Biobank team did not attempt to merge them and is publishing them separately. Scores were taken as close as possible to the baseline assessment, resulting in: 8 scores for England, from the 2010 edition of English IMD
