Getting the data A couple of months ago I discovered a package developed by Public Health England that makes it easier to extract the data behind their fingertips website (https://fingertips.phe.org.uk/). I wanted to try it and as I like maps I decided to download some data at CCG level and make an interactive choropleth map using the leaflet package. I use select_indicators to browse the indicators and pick one at random that seems to have CCG level data.

I love all things R and data. I’m a senior data analyst at the Health Foundation and a part-time PhD at UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health. I am also an RStudio Certified Instructor in the tidyverse. This is where I share some of my coding projects - some more useful than others!
