Tyne and Wear Research and Information (TWRI) 

TWRI was established in 1986 to support the 5 Tyne and Wear district Councils (Gateshead, Newcastle, North Tyneside, South Tyneside, Sunderland) through the assembly and analysis of statistical information.

Data is also made more widely available via reports, abstracts and publications. TWRI also liaises with national bodies, particularly with the Office for National Statistics (ONS), and central government departments on a variety of data issues affecting local authorities in Tyne and Wear.
