The Census is Coming!  Households across England and Wales will soon be asked to take part in Census 2021. We’ve had censuses in this country since 1801 and they are crucial for the private, public and voluntary sectors to plan their activities. The data the census gives us are unique in terms of quality – and also richness, right down to Parish and town level!

In spite of the Covid-19 restrictions, the Census is going ahead on 21 March next year, but with an emphasis on digital, as well as more traditional forms of engagement.
