Getting to know your parish
What is this spotlight?
How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL GRADE, LIFESTYLE
The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.
What are the particular issues that affect your parish? Are you doing anything to address these?

A low-level of skill or educational attainment is one indicator of social disadvantage. Qualifications may make it easier to find employment. Learning also helps promote active citizenship and combat social exclusion.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

Getting to know your parish
What is this spotlight?
How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL GRADE, LIFESTYLE
The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.

What is this spotlight?
How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL GRADE, LIFESTYLE
The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

What is this spotlight?
How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL GRADE, LIFESTYLE
The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% most deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL GRADE, LIFESTYLE
The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
10% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.
1. Summary: a brief overview of your parish, including what look to be 5 of
the most pressing social issues in your area

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

What is this spotlight?
How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
10% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.

Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

EMPLOYMENT AND SOCIAL GRADE, LIFESTYLE
The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.
What are the particular issues that affect your parish? Are you doing anything to address these?

A low-level of skill or educational attainment is one indicator of social disadvantage. Qualifications may make it easier to find employment. Learning also helps promote active citizenship and combat social exclusion.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.
What are the particular issues that affect your parish? Are you doing anything to address these?

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.

Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).

WHAT TO DO NEXT
This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community to they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

These have been collected annually between 2007 and 2011 by the Research and Statistics team, Archbishops’ Council
Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas
overlaying the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

What is this spotlight?
How should I use it?
Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% most deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.
What are the particular issues that affect your parish? Are you doing anything to address these?

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.

Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be

not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

WHAT TO DO NEXT
This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community to they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

These have been collected annually between 2007 and 2011 by the Research and Statistics team, Archbishops’ Council
Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas
overlaying the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.
What are the particular issues that affect your parish? Are you doing anything to address these?

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

Questions
Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.

Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

WHAT TO DO NEXT
This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community to they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

These have been collected annually between 2007 and 2011 by the Research and Statistics team, Archbishops’ Council
Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas
overlaying the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.

Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who
receive this are on a low income. This statistic only covers people living in private households, and not residential institutions (such as nursing homes).
50% least deprived
The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),
Other income related benefits.
Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

Contents
This short spotlight brings together a range of information about your parish,
both in terms of your congregations, but also the wider community living in
your area. It covers areas such as Christian affiliation, population age and
ethnicity profiles, household structures, deprivation, employment, schools
and qualifications, alongside church statistics such as attendance and giving.
There is information at the end of the spotlight about where this data comes
from and how it was calculated. If you have any further queries then please
do contact the Research and Statistics team at
This spotlight is not an end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to
explore further. You may want to discuss it at a PCC meeting or with
leadership teams. We’ve included some questions on each page to help you
to think about the information, however some things will be of more
relevance in some areas than others, and these are just suggestions to get
you started. We’ve also included some bigger questions about what to do
next at the end of the spotlight on page 17. There’s space for you to write
some notes here. It might be helpful to write a short paragraph to
summarise your community profile or note down anything that has struck
you as particularly important. There are also details at the end for where
you can find further information should you want to dig a little deeper.

The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SeC) is an occupationally
based classification but has rules to provide coverage of the whole adult population.
The NS-SeC provides an indication of socio-economic position based on occupation.
It is an Office for National Statistics standard classification. To assign a person aged
16 to 74 to an NS-SeC category their occupation title is combined with information
about their employment status, whether they are employed or self-employed and
whether or not they supervise other employees. Full-time students are recorded in
the' full-time students' category regardless of whether they are economically active
or not.Parish Share Assessed1

Life expectancy at birth can give an idea of overall quality of life. Life expectancy is an average. Women tend to have greater life expectancy. Life expectany can be affected by family history, marital status, economic status,
physique, exercise, diet, drug use including smoking and alcohol consumption, disposition, education, environment, sleep, climate, and health care.

Pension Credit is an income related benefit made up of 2 parts - Guarantee Credit and Savings Credit. The guaranteed part tops up weekly income if it’s below £142.70 (single people) or £217.90 (couples) so those who

The proportion of children in families in receipr of either out of work benefits or tax credits where their reported income is less than 60% median income. Poor children may be excluded from participating in society. They may be unable to afford school
trips and activities; school uniforms or warm winter clothes, be unable to go swimming, have friends round for tea or celebrate their birthdays. Many will never have a holiday. Children who grow up poor are more likely to leave school without
qualifications, have lower employment chances, thus restricting their ability to get a good job and financially contribute to society.

Deprivation is considered to be a multi-dimensional problem, encompassing a range of domains such as financial, health, education, services or crime. continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below
which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are not.While being in the most deprived 10% may indicate financial disadvantage, it could equally be due to isolated living.
Number of people aged 16 to State Pension age claiming: Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Incapacity Benefit (IB), Income Support (IS) (as a lone parent or in the “other” category),

Social housing is housing that is let at low rents and on a secure basis to people in housing need. It is generally provided by councils and not-for-profit organisations such as housing associations. Vulnerable groups are often
concentrated in the social housing sector, with low rates of employment and low income levels
Children in single parent families have a much higher risk of living in poverty than children in couple families. Single parents may rely on informal childcare.

DEPRIVATION AND KEY ISSUES AFFECTING PARISHIONERSIt is important to note that these statistics are a measure of deprivation, not affluence, and to recognise that not every person in a highly deprived area will themselves be
deprived. Equally, there will be some deprived people living in the least deprived areas.
Deprivation covers a broad range of issues and refers to unmet needs caused by a lack of resources of all kinds, not just financial. The English Indices of Deprivation
attempt to measure a broader concept of multiple deprivation, made up of several distinct dimensions, or domains, of deprivation. Seven domains of deprivation are
combined to produce the overall Index of Multiple Deprivation. Each domain contains a number of component indicators. The English Indices of Deprivation are a
continuous measure of relative deprivation therefore there is no definitive point on the scale below which areas are considered to be deprived and above which they are
not. Deprived areas have been defined in this release as those containing LSOAs that are amongst the 10 per cent most deprived in England according to the overall Index
of Multiple Deprivation.

This spotlight has given you some information about your parish both in terms of your own church congregations and your local community. This is not an
end in itself, but rather a starting place for you to explore further. Questions to consider might include:
• What does our congregation look like?
• How does it compare to the local population?
• What other churches are there in the area? What parts of the community do they reach? Which parts of the community are being missed?
• What other local organisations or centres are there, that might bring people into our parish? Examples might be Hospitals or health centres, prisons, job
centres, homeless shelters, schools, charities, mother and toddler groups, uniformed organisations, community centres, libraries, shops, offices, stations?
How can we interact with these people?
• What areas of our parish do we know well or less well?
• How does the local community change between weekdays and weekends? How do our services and events fit with the shifting local population?
• Is our website/'A Church Near You' profile up to date?
• Are our records up to date?

Methodology: Government data is published on government boundaries that do not match ecclesiastical boundaries. In order to produce parish population and demographic
estimates we have worked with the ONS to use a best fit modelling process. As such, these statistics can only be considered estimates and, particularly in very diverse areas, are
best used in the context of local knowledge. Where parish populations are sparse the figures for government areas overlapping the parish are used.
Parish estimates from the census have been calculated using the census output area data published by the ONS. These are provisional estimates, and when more granular data at
postcode level is available, will be revised. Estimates have been modelled by allocating the population weighted centroid of each output area to the parish within which it falls.
This means that some parishes have not been allocated population, however proportions for demographic variables have been calculated based on the output areas overlaying
the parish.
For further information about this process, please contact [email protected].

When analysing data, it is important to consider that some parishes are very small and proportions may be very large even where very few cases meet the criteria.
