⁹⁵Ipsos Levelling Up Index. Scores fall between +200 to -200 – the higher the score the more favourable public perception towards the indicators contained within each mission. The Levelling Up Index uses our gold-standard Ipsos UK KnowledgePanel to collate the data which captures the opinions of 12,000 respondents across all nations. The Levelling Up Index was first run in February 2022 and then again in early May 2022 and it will continue to run at regular intervals to help capture trends and changes across perception on delivery against the 12 missions. https://www.ipsos.com/en-uk/ipsos-levelling-index-continues-show-clear-regional-disparities-how-public-feel-about-their-local/
