This dataset is available as machine-readable JSON β€” including provenance, columns, key figures and a verbatim sample of rows β€” and as a spreadsheet-ready CSV sample, for researchers, journalists and AI assistants. Every figure traces to the source below.

Methodology

Figures are taken verbatim from the NHS England Cancer Waiting Times (CWT-CRS) ICB sub-location extract for the reference month. Performance percentages are completed pathways within the standard divided by total completed pathways, exactly as NHS England reports them; no re-weighting or imputation is applied.
