Cheshire and Merseyside Secure Data Environment (SDE)

Posted on March 11th, 2025

The NHS in Cheshire and Merseyside is improving research to make sure you have the best possible health and care services.

The Cheshire and Merseyside Secure Data Environment (SDE) is an online platform that securely stores and brings together health and care data. This includes data from GP practices, community and mental health services, hospital services, and social care.

The Cheshire and Merseyside SDE allows your health and care information to be safely analysed by approved health, care and research professionals. This will help to unlock the power of health and care data. It will help us to improve patient care, speed up diagnosis, and research new treatments faster than ever before. Our health data can help to save lives.

To find out how data is used for care and research, as well as how you can opt out, go to the Data Into Action website.
