Carnegie UK publishes an annual wellbeing index called Life in the UK. ​

This measures social, economic, environmental and democratic wellbeing across the UK, giving governments insight to understand whether we are collectively living better or worse over time. The 2023 Life in the UK Index, conducted in partnership with Ipsos, was based on a survey of more than 6,900 people.

This publication by Ipsos provides an overview of the research process from survey design, index content, data processing, exploratory factor analysis, bootstrapped factor analysis to regression.
