The census is coming... and it's online

The census is a national survey that happens every 10 years and gives us a picture of all the people and households in England and Wales.

The next one will take place on Sunday 21 March 2021 known as Census Day.

Soon you will receive a letter that will tell you everything you need to know about how to complete #Census2021

The census is coming

Why is census data collected? 

By taking part, you’ll be helping make sure Telford and Wrekin get the services needed now and in the future.

All kinds of organisations, from local authorities to charities, use the information to help provide the services we all need, including transport, education and healthcare. Without the census, it would be much more difficult to do this.

The first ever online census

Census 2021 will be online so you can fill it in at any time and on any device. Paper versions will be available for those who need it.

You must complete the census by law

You must complete the census by law. If you do not, or if you supply false information, you could be fined up to £1,000. Some questions will be clearly labelled as optional: it is not an offence if you do not answer these.

We will be keeping you updated along the way.
