The 2011 and 2021 rounds of the survey did not take place due to the Jersey census being held in the same year. Demographic information relating to 2011 and 2021 can be found in the relevant census report. Many of the health related questions normally covered in JOLS were included in the Health, Activity and Wellbeing 2021 Report.
