<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P><p class="x_x_MsoNormal">The Family Resources Survey (FRS) has been running continuously since 1992 to meet the information needs of the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
Description
It is almost wholly funded by DWP. </p><p class="x_x_MsoNormal">The FRS collects information from a large, and representative sample of private households in the United Kingdom (prior to 2002, it covered Great Britain only). The interview year runs from April to March.</p><p class="x_x_MsoNormal">The focus of the survey is on income, and how much comes from the many possible sources (such as employee earnings, self-employed earnings or profits from businesses, and dividends; individual pensions; state benefits, including Universal Credit and the State Pension; and other sources such as savings and investments).
Specific items of expenditure, such as rent or mortgage, Council Tax and water bills, are also covered.</p><p class="x_x_MsoNormal">Many other topics are covered and the dataset has a very wide range of personal characteristics, at the adult or child, family and then household levels. These include education, caring, childcare and disability. The dataset also captures material deprivation, household food security and (new for 2021/22) household food bank usage.</p><p> </p><p class="x_x_MsoNormal">The FRS is a national statistic whose results are published on the gov.uk website.
