#SheffDataforGood: Mapping 'Social Isolation' 2/2

Sheffield Data for Good brings together the data and social expertise in Sheffield to help solve the city’s social problems. And it's for anyone that's interested, not just 'data experts'.

The focus of this session will be 'Social Isolation'. When we met up about this topic earlier in the year, we had some ideas for what we could do next. We then voted on these ideas. And the winning idea was...

- Map risk factors and community assets/services by geography in Sheffield -

(see the full vote results at https://doodle.com/poll/453kq2dxkthd5kw3).

This Meetup will continue the development of the idea. We will have already made a start during a Meetup on the 22nd May, but you don't need to have come along before.

#SheffDataforGood: Homelessness Data Hack (part 2)

Sheffield Data for Good brings together the data and social expertise in Sheffield to help solve the city’s social problems. And it's for anyone that's interested, not just 'data experts'.

In November 2017, we started to look at homelessness in Sheffield and have since been trying to establish what questions people have about homelessness and what data is available to answer these questions.

A small group from Sheffield Data for Good have been working closely with Roundabout to understand what data they are collecting and what this can tell us.

As a result of this work, Roundabout now have 6 datasets they can open up to us for a data hack.

This will be a continuation of our first Sheffield Data for Good hack on 26th January but you do not need to have come before.

#SheffDataforGood: 'Social Isolation' Meetup 2

Sheffield Data for Good brings together the data and social expertise in Sheffield to help solve the city’s social problems. And it's for anyone that's interested, not just 'data experts'.

The focus of this session will be 'Social Isolation'. It's the second time we've looked in to this topic so we will be building on the conversations from first time around. You don't need to have come along before.

More details to follow, but...

We will most likely take this opportunity to discuss further what we mean by 'social isolation', who is affected and how what role 'data' can play in understanding it in more detail.
