Trevor Peacock reported back from the Improvers session as follows:

There was a lot of interest when I mentioned the resources available on the ICO’s website. In particular, the ‘motivated intruder test’. If you’re planning to send participants a follow-up with some resources, I’ve listed a couple of useful ones below:

Here’s the ICO’s guidance on deciding if data is ‘personal data’. Head to p7 where there’s a decision process with advice you can follow:

Here’s the ICO’s guidelines on anonymisation. This includes the ‘motivated intruder test’ (p22) which helps decide the risk of disclosure if data fell into the wrong hands:
