Information on the number of people with dementia has been collected since 2006-07. Information is collected at National Health Service organisation level, and not constituency level. Data on the number of people with dementia in England, Hampshire Primary Care Trust, and the clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) that replaced it, are shown in the following table.
