To have an indication of the birth rate at GP practice level, population figures have been<br />
taken from the Exeter patient registration system. By counting the number of infants aged<br />
below one year, it is possible to calculate a proxy practice birth rate, see figure 3. Using this<br />
method the average birth rate for <strong>Copeland</strong> PBC is 9 births per 1,000 registered population<br />
(July, <strong>2010</strong>). There is a wide variation in practice birth rates with Mansion House Surgery<br />
experiencing the highest rate of 12.2 births and Flatt Walks <strong>Health</strong> Centre the lowest at 8.3<br />
births.<br />
