The UK Longitudinal Linkage Collaboration (UK LLC) has been set up to bring together study data from more than twenty of the UK's well-established longitudinal studies and link it with NHS COVID-19 data; education data; occupation data and information related to where people live. This creates a national research resource which provides a rich source of longitudinal data which will be kept updated as time goes on.Researchers approved to access the data within the UK LLC Trusted Research Environment will be able find out more about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic than was ever possible before this way of working was set up. This is because longitudinal studies have lots of detailed information about study participants' lives both before and during the pandemic. Having a ‘before and after' picture will allow researchers to examine the wider impact on health and wellbeing as a result of lockdown measures and the disruption to our health, financial and social systems. Researchers' findings will provide insights for policy makers and support changes to public health.The UK LLC is run by the Universities of Bristol and Edinburgh, with collaborators the University of Swansea and the University of Leicester.
