1. Introduction
This report presents an analysis of an online census of the diagnostic radiography workforce in the UK run by the CoR in September 2014. The census was targeted at employers of diagnostic radiographers in England, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, in the NHS and other healthcare sectors. Respondents were asked about the type and scale of radiography services they provide and size and nature of their radiography workforce. The results of this census will inform the work of professional bodies, workforce planners and commissioners/providers of radiography education.
