Of those adults in West Wales living with a limiting long term illness, only 7.5% fall within the 18-64 age range. The total figure of those with a life limiting illness in West Wales is 23,656 and is predicted to decrease by 4% by 2030, with the most significant drop of 9.9% predicted in Ceredigion. This is reflective of general population trends, which predict a fall in the numbers of adults aged between 18 and 64 in general. However, the expected decrease in West Wales is significantly greater than in Wales as a whole, which stands at 0.7% (Daffodil Cymru).
The following tables provide further details of health related lifestyle factors in the 18+ population.
