Mental health and wellbeing JSNA

Help us with changes and streamlining of our profiles

Following the health and social care statistical outputs consultation and the responses published in November 2024, we are running user engagement webinars on the below responses:

1. Combining and streamlining of ‘Children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing’ and ‘Perinatal mental health’ profiles

2. Combining and streamlining of ‘Severe mental illness’ and ‘Common mental disorders’ profiles

3. Removal of the ‘Mental health and wellbeing JSNA' profile and for indicators and topic content to be covered by the remaining mental health profiles

There will be 2 dates available for each combined profile. Please note that changes to ‘Mental health and wellbeing JSNA’ profile will be covered in all sessions. 

If you are interested in providing input on the changes, please complete the registration form.  If you are interested in finding out more and inputting on both combined profiles, please select a suitable date for each webinar.

About the 'Mental health and wellbeing JSNA' profile 

The mental health and wellbeing joint strategic needs assessment (JSNA) profile provides information with which to support health and wellbeing boards to produce local mental health and wellbeing JSNAs. The profile collates and presents a wide range of data, developed from a variety of relevant, robust sources. The profiling tool allows planners, providers and stakeholders to profile their area and benchmark against similar populations. The aim is to provide information for improvement, not judgement.

Tool structure

The JSNA profiling tool brings together a range of data, presented in the form of indicators, which are divided into six topic areas:

  • prevalence and incidence
  • risk factors
  • protective factors
  • wellbeing
  • services
  • quality and outcomes

A number of geographies are available with which to view each indicator and these include NHS geographies such as clinical commissioning group (CCG), integrated care board (ICB), and local government geographies such as upper tier local authority (UTLA) and regions, as well as England level data.

Supporting information

The profile is supported by a range of intelligence products with which to assist health professionals when producing JSNAs. These resources can be found at:
