Census 1921 on Sunday 21 March

CENSUS 2021 ON SUNDAY 21 MARCH

The census is for everyone. It’s a unique national survey that happens every 10 years and gives a snapshot of all the people in England and Wales.

It can work out what the country's needs are and help inform decisions about services, like healthcare. Predicting future healthcare needs is never easy, which is why it’s vital for everyone to complete a Census 2021 form. Public health organisations use this information to apply for funding and planning.

You will receive an initial census postcard delivered to your door late February, letting you know about the upcoming Census. This will be followed by the actual Census Pack sent to you from early March which will include full details on how to complete your Census survey either online or on a paper copy. Census Day itself is on 21 March, but you can complete the questionnaire anytime up to the end of April.

By filling in your census, you will help shape your community for the next 10 years. Find out more about what the census means for you here: www.census.gov.uk and Follow us @Census2021
