Data and Analysis

At Arun & Chichester Citizens Advice, we have a wealth of data from our clients about a vast number of issues. We regularly monitor and analyse this data in order to work out which issues are most prominent in our communities, highlight any relevant trends and patterns, and discern which demographics are being disproportionately affected by particular issues.

The best way for us to showcase this data is through our data dashboards. We have a number of interactive dashboards, all linked below, which each have a different focus and purpose.

These are our interactive dashboards which demonstrate how the cost-of-living crisis is impacting our clients in Arun and Chichester. We update these dashboards every month with data from our clients to keep an eye on trends relating to the cost-of-living crisis.

The Research and Campaigns team have recently been looking into the different issues faced by our clients with dependent children, in order to better understand the needs of different families in our community and how we can support them. These dashboards look at cost-of-living issues faced by Arun and Chichester clients who are couples or single parents with dependent children.

Housing and debt are two issues we know our clients are particularly struggling with and we are focusing closely on these in our research, especially as the cost-of-living crisis is turning into a debt crisis. This dashboard looks into the different debt and housing issues our clients come to us about.
