Census 2021

What Is The Census?

In March 2021, the UK government is conducting a Census. It is a national survey taken every ten years that helps understand who is living in the UK. The information helps plan for schools, hospitals, public transport and much more.

You will receive your Census Information Pack through your door with the post in March. This will give you the code to complete the Census.

Census Day is 21st March 2021

To complete the Census, head to the Census website here: https://census.gov.uk/

You will need a 16 Digit Code. You will receive this in your Census Pack.

Please Note: You must complete the Census by law, or you could be fined up to £1,000
