Sunday 21st March is Census Day. 

The census gives us a picture of all the people and households in England and Wales. It gathers vital information that helps plan and fund public services, such as transport, education and healthcare. By taking part and encouraging others to do the same, you will help make sure your community gets the services it needs. It’s easy to fill in your census questionnaire online.

1. We’ll send you a pack in the post at the start of March with a household access code.

2. Go to www.census.gov.uk and select “Start census”.

3. Enter your household access code.

4. Answer the questions and submit when complete.

We have two dedicated ‘Census Support Centres’ (CSC) in East Suffolk – one at the Marina Centre in Lowestoft which will be operated by staff from East Suffolk Customer Services, and one at the Station House in Campsea Ashe operated by the social enterprise there. They will not be open to the public at present, but can offer telephone assistance with completion of a Census form and answer general enquiries.
