You asked
I would like to obtain statistics about the number of diabetics (Types 1 and 2) in the population since 1960, ideally with a breakdown by:
Age
Gender
Body Mass Index
Smoking Status
Level of Education
We said
Thank you for your enquiry.
We do not hold data about the number of people with diabetes. You may be able to get this information from NHS Digital (about patients with diabetes in the NHS) and Public Health England (about public health issues such as the causes of diabetes). The Devolved Administrations also have their own statistics on health.
