The 2001 Census was held on 29th April 2001.

The Census is a count of all people and households in the UK.

It provides essential statistical information, enabling the planning and funding of public services, including education, health and transport.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) is staggering the release of results from the 2001 Census; the first population counts were available in October 2002 and the second release, of Key Statistics for Local Authority Districts, was on 13th February 2003.
