Personal wellbeing, encompassing elements like happiness, feelings of anxiety, life satisfaction, and the perception of activities being worthwhile, is a pivotal aspect of population health. This sub-domain reflects the psychological and emotional dimensions of health, which are as important as physical health.

High levels of anxiety or low life satisfaction can be indicative of underlying social or economic issues, mental health conditions, or a lack of community support. Conversely, positive scores in happiness and life satisfaction are often signs of a healthy, well-supported population. These indicators provide valuable insights into the overall mental and emotional health of Derbyshire residents, guiding the development of policies and interventions aimed at improving mental wellbeing. Activities and programs that enhance life satisfaction and reduce anxiety can have far-reaching benefits, including improved physical health, greater social cohesion, and higher productivity.
