How UKMT Discover works

Sources, dates and assumptions.

Question → Context → Interaction → Result → Source → Next action

Discover results use a controlled static ONS snapshot, human-reviewed public-data questions or transparent browser-side arithmetic. They are not live dashboards and they are not personalised advice.

See My Area

Uses 361 lower-tier/unitary-authority records with valid 2024 values for both GDHI per head and median age. Comparable medians use the same verified geography universe.

Household Shock Lab

Uses only the figures entered on the page. It assumes the additional monthly cost continues for 12 months and that everything else stays unchanged.
