The comparison of Census data from 2001 and 2011about the ethnic diversity of the Christian population, which is set out in this report, is one element of the work the Council for Christian Unity is doing with a variety of partners in this area. We are very pleased to be working with the Research and Statistics Department and the Committee for Minority Ethnic Anglican Affairs at Church House, and with Churches Together in England on a number of fronts. We hope that the set of eight reports, for each of the eight regions of England, will be a helpful resource for Church Leaders, Dioceses, Districts and Synods, Intermediate Ecumenical Bodies and local churches.

  • Income, Skills and Deprivation in Leicester and Nottingham
    Institute for Applied Economics and Social Value East Midlands Economic Data Repository Short Report 21-02 Income, Skills and Deprivation in Leicester and Nottingham Data for this report is available at If citing this work please use: Cartwright, E., T. Luong and Al. Orazgani (2021) ‘Income, skills and deprivation in Leicester and Nottingham’. IAESV EMEDR Data Brief 21-02. Introduction In this data brief we provide some background on economic deprivation in Leicester and Nottingham. The data in this report largely pre-dates the coronavirus pandemic and so identifies long-term economic challenges in the respective cities. The coronavirus pandemic will no doubt exasperate these challenges. In the brief we look at: • Measures of deprivation, • Employment and wages, • Skills and type of employment. Key findings • Leicester and Nottingham are two of the most deprived areas in England with high levels of income deprivation and skills deprivation. • In comparison to other cities, Leicester and Nottingham residents earn relatively low salaries and work in relatively low-skilled occupations. • In comparison to other cities, Leicester residents have relatively low levels of qualification. Nottingham is closer to the national average. Definitions We focus on Leicester and Nottingham as defined by the unitary authority boundary. We also focus on people who are resident in the two cities, rather than people who work there. Source of data. We are using data from a range of sources but primarily the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) and the Annual Population Survey (APS), accessed on Nomis. The Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings is based on a snapshot of the workforce in April of each year.

  • Identifying Richard III – an Interview with Dr Turi King
    The Post Hole Special Feature Identifying Richard III – an interview with Dr Turi King Emily Taylor1 1Department of Archaeology, University of York, The King’s Manor, York, YO1 7EP Email: [email protected] In light of the recent discovery of Richard III, Dr Turi King, lecturer in genetics and archaeology at the University of Leicester, talks about her involvement in the research project that found England’s final Plantagenet king in this exclusive interview with The Post Hole. You were an important part in the exciting search for Richard III. When did you become involved with the project? Richard Buckley contacted me about the idea of my involvement in 2011, but it wasn’t until August 2012 that the project went ahead. The University of Leicester worked in collaboration with the Richard III Society and Leicester City Council and the search didn’t begin until 2012 due to issues with getting funding sorted and carrying out the desk-based survey. In 1986, David Baldwin wrote an article called 'King Richard's Grave in Leicester' giving the potential location of Richard’s grave. Then the historian John Ashdown-Hill wrote a book in 2011, The Last Days of Richard III, which again spoke about the likely location of the grave and also included a section on the possibility of identifying Richard through DNA analysis. John had traced a female line relative of Richard III, Joy Ibsen, who could act as a comparator if any putative remains of Richard III were found. This, among other things, inspired Philippa Langley to contact the University of Leicester Archaeological Services about the possibility of carrying out an archaeological project.

  • The Isle of Wight in the English Landscape
    THE ISLE OF WIGHT IN THE ENGLISH LANDSCAPE: MEDIEVAL AND POST-MEDIEVAL RURAL SETTLEMENT AND LAND USE ON THE ISLE OF WIGHT HELEN VICTORIA BASFORD A study in two volumes Volume 1: Text and References Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Bournemouth University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy January 2013 2 Copyright Statement This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with its author and due acknowledgement must always be made of the use of any material contained in, or derived from, this thesis. 3 4 Helen Victoria Basford The Isle of Wight in the English Landscape: Medieval and Post-Medieval Rural Settlement and Land Use Abstract The thesis is a local-scale study which aims to place the Isle of Wight in the English landscape. It examines the much discussed but problematic concept of ‘islandness’, identifying distinctive insular characteristics and determining their significance but also investigating internal landscape diversity. This is the first detailed academic study of Isle of Wight land use and settlement from the early medieval period to the nineteenth century and is fully referenced to national frameworks. The thesis utilises documentary, cartographic and archaeological evidence. It employs the techniques of historic landscape characterisation (HLC), using synoptic maps created by the author and others as tools of graphic analysis. An analysis of the Isle of Wight’s physical character and cultural roots is followed by an investigation of problems and questions associated with models of settlement and land use at various scales.
