The included .zip file contains reusable and reproducible data tidying code and copies of source data from UK Government sources to create a harmonised dataset containing children's services, children's services expenditure, and other indicator variables between 2009-10 and 2021-22 at the local authority level. A codebook containing all variables and their description is available in the linked tidied_data folder.

A readme file is included which describes the structure of the folder. Comments are included throughout the code. The source of each administrative dataset is included in the source.txt files within each subdirectory of the data directory.
