Summary

This report is about what influences Londoners’ wellbeing and what can help. It was produced as a collaboration between a university, the Mile End Institute at Queen Mary University of London, and a think tank, Centre for London, because we want to combine academic rigor with practical policy proposals. The report uses data from Understanding Society, a large longitudinal study which asks the same people questions about their lives every few years. The wellbeing measure used in this study is the Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Wellbeing Scale, which is a well validated measure that asks people how much they agree with a series of positive statements about themselves over the last two weeks, such as “I have been feeling useful”.
