Building good relationships and working partnerships between people of different faiths and beliefs is part of the year-round work of many people and organisations across the UK. Having a special Week provides a focal point, helping to open inter faith activity up to a wider audience so that more and more people are made aware of the importance of this vital work and are able to participate in it. THE THREE AIMS OF THE WEEK ARE: Strengthening good inter faith relations at all levels Increasing awareness of the different and distinct faith communities in the UK, in particular celebrating and building on the contribution which their members make to their neighbourhoods and to wider society Increasing understanding between people of religious and non-religious beliefs Date and Time Event Title Details Contact and Venue Saturday 11th November 2017 Saturday 11th Vegetarian Cooking and making Vegetarian Cooking and making friends St Matthew’s Avenham Mission, 117 Accregate Lane Nov 2017, friends (Preston) Preston, PR1 5QQ 18:00-21:00 Contact: [email protected] Sunday 12th November 2017 Sunday 12th Nov Remembrance Day service United Service of Remembrance, Blackburn Blackburn Cathedral, Cathedral Close, Blackburn BB1 5AA 2017, 09:30 (Blackburn) Cathedral, 9.30am. -

North Turton with Tockholes Ward Profile 2011 Census
2011 Census - simple statistics for North Turton with Tockholes ward Figure 1 - North Turton with Tockholes ward Introduction This briefing provides a summary of the 2011 Census data for North Turton with Tockholes Ward, arranged under the headings ‘Who we are’, ‘How we live’ and ‘What we do’. The original version of these briefings was based on the simple Census tables available as at January 2013. Since then, much more detailed and complex Census data has been released, but this briefing still aims to keep things as simple as possible. The only use made of the newer tables has been to introduce new or improved age breakdowns where this is felt to be of benefit. Health data is now presented by age-group, so that the reader can make fair comparisons between places with different age profiles. The ‘What we do’ section is now able to focus on the 16-64 age-group, which is probably closer to most people’s idea of ‘working age’ than the original 16-74. 1 March v.2 Introduction 2014 North Turton with Tockholes ward Who we are Figure 2 - North Turton with Tockholes population Population size (2011 Census) by age and sex The previous Census in 2001 found that the Source: Tables PP05 and PP06 population of North Turton with Tockholes was approximately 4198. The latest results from the 2011 Census show that this number has risen to 4345. Age structure Figure 2 shows the 4345 population of North Turton with Tockholes broken down by age and sex. 21.4% of its population is aged 0-19, compared with 28.7% for Blackburn with Darwen as a whole. -
