  • Denton, Droylsden & Audenshaw: Area Profile
    A profile of needs and services about children, young people and their families In the Ashton area of Tameside December 2007 1 Ashton: Profile of need and services Introduction This is a selective statistical profile of needs and services in the Ashton area – one of four areas chosen as a basis from which future integrated services for children, young people and families will be delivered. The other areas are Stalybridge, Mossley & Dukinfield; Hyde, Hattersley & Longdendale and Denton, Droylsden & Audenshaw. Companion profiles of these other areas are also available. This profile has a focus on data that has relevance to children and families rather than other community members (e.g. older people). The data selected is not exhaustive; rather, key indicators of need are selected to help produce an overall picture of need in the area and offer some comparisons between different localities (mainly wards) within the area. Some commentary is provided as appropriate. It is expected that the profile will aid planning and delivery of services. The profile has two parts: Part 1 focuses on the presentation of basic need data whilst Part 2 focuses on services. 2 Contents Ashton: Profile of need and services ...............................................................2 Introduction ...................................................................................................2 Contents........................................................................................................3 Part 1: Basic need data................................................................................6
