I hope you find the profile interesting and useful. Thetford faces many challenges, illustrated by the data contained in the profile – but numerous organisation and local people are working hard to build on Thetford’s many assets and regenerate the town, Thetford is changing. Since the 2001 Census there has been a significant amount of new housing built, investment in local infrastructure, major European investment in social and economic activity and new services and activities springing up – and a real will to make Thetford a better place to live, work, study and visit. Working together we can make a real difference. Neil Stott Chief Executive Keystone Development Trust 1 A Thetford Profile Purpose of The Thetford Profile The main purpose of compiling this document of current information is to provide a single source for much of the information about the Thetford area. In addition it provides an opportunity to highlight the common links between data sets and allows the user access to a unique compilation of data relating to the area. When viewed as a whole it also provides a fascinating insight into the area. It can also support both proposals and decisions for improvements. As with any data however, it is a snapshot, limited to a point in time and by the data available. The data is in this document has been collated from a variety of sources, the main one being the 2001 Census data from the Office of National Statistics Web-site. -
