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.

  • Network Rail Completes Major Work on £1.5Billion Midland Main Line Upgrade
    Network Rail completes major work on £1.5billion Midland Main Line Upgrade May 18, 2021 Network Rail has completed the biggest improvements to the Midland Main Line since it was built, meaning more seats, faster journeys and more reliable services for passengers travelling between the East Midlands and London. In the latest stage of the upgrade, teams have carried out vital work to install new overhead line equipment between Bedford and Corby, as well as improvements to station platforms and major work to upgrade bridges on the route – to make way for electrification between London St Pancras International and Corby. All of this work means there will be 50% more seats for passengers travelling at peak times between Corby and London. The new train timetable was introduced last Sunday (16 May), and East Midlands Railway launched its new all-electric service between Corby and London St Pancras International, providing a sixth train per hour. The upgrade, along with the new timetable, also boosts the number of seats on services across the East Midlands and cuts travel time between London and Derby, Leicester, Sheffield and Nottingham. It’s hoped the improvements will take more cars off the roads, as COVID restrictions ease and passengers return to the railway. Electric trains are quieter and much better for the environment that diesel trains. They produce almost 80% less carbon, benefitting people who live and work near the railway. Gary Walsh, Route Director for Network Rail’s East Midlands route, said: “As passengers return to the railway, it’s great to be welcoming them back with the biggest improvements in a generation on the Midland Main Line.

  • 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.
