Briefing Notes
Research Sandwell and its partners
have scheduled publication of a series of briefing notes, fact sheets and
technical briefs. Briefing notes are in-depth explorations of a particular
topic, aimed at policy makers and interested members of the public who want
to delve into the detail of a particular issue. Factsheets are statistical
digests with minimal interpretation, but plenty of useful figures around a
topic. Finally, technical notes focus on research methods and upcoming studies
which may be of interest to our website users.
Over the coming months, we
will continue to develop a programme of publications on a series of issues
relevant to workers and residents in Sandwell. If you have a specific issue
you'd like to see addressed in one of these notes, please get in touch with
us, using our contact details.
