The Covid-19 shutdown is not affecting all parts of the UK equally. Economic activity in local consumer service industries (LCSI), such as retail outlets, restaurants, hairdressers, or gardeners has all but stopped; other industries are less affected. This project will produce data measuring the shock, the multiplier, and the Covid-19 shutdown
recovery risk for UK neighbourhoods. These variables will be estimated using a wealth of individual and firm level information from national survey and administrative data.
