LSOA to CCG and STP Lookup: England Administrative Geography for April 2018

England's 2011 lower layer super output areas linked to 2018 clinical commissioning groups, sustainability and transformation partnerships, and local authority districts as of 1 April 2018. The dataset is produced by the Office for National Statistics and includes updates for newly formed and boundary-changed CCGs. It contains nine text fields including codes and names for each geographic level.

Use Cases

• Mapping public health statistics from LSOA-level to CCG-level based on the lookup relationship.
• Analyzing healthcare service boundaries by joining STP codes with other regional datasets.
• Validating geographic consistency for data aggregated across different English administrative hierarchies.

Strengths

• Includes specific updates for newly formed CCGs such as NHS Birmingham and Solihull CCG (E38000220).
• Contains nine defined fields with specified lengths, such as LAD18NM with a 28-character field length.
• Explicitly states the snapshot date of 1 April 2018 for all geographic relationships.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is a static snapshot for April 2018 and may not reflect later boundary changes.
