Read the full stories in our April 2026 UK Data Service Newsletter.

In this issue of the UK Data Service Newsletter, we share details on the future events we will be hosting over the next few months, including the Health Studies User Conference, the Family Finance Surveys User Conference and the Labour Force and Annual Population Surveys User Conference.

We also look back on the success of our Crime Surveys User Conference and we provide details on some of the latest developments at the UK Data Service, including our new partnership on Longitudinal Population Studies with UK LLC; the launch of our recent collaboration with the Department for Education; and the upcoming release of the UK Covid-19 Inquiry’s Every Story Matters exercise into our collection.

Additionally, find out more about out ‘Train to Transform’ project, which is funded by a £10,000 DiCourRSE grant and will run from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. It will help to improve the skills of librarians with training students and academic staff on how to make the best use of datasets held in the UK Data Service’s collection.

Finally, we are looking forward to catching up with many of you over the next few months at CESSDA’s 50th Anniversary Conference, IASSIST 2026, the Dataverse Community Meeting 2026 and the Digital Footprints Conference 2026.
