Alwaleed Centre, University of Edinburgh ‘While Muslims form 1.45% of the total Scottish population, the proportion of school-age children (aged 5-14) who are Muslim is notably higher, at 2.4%. The number of Muslim teenagers in 2021 (those currently in the 5-9 age band) is projected to be 9.4% of the overall Muslim population. For some areas of Glasgow and Dundee, wards with the most concentrated Muslim populations (constituting over 5% of the total), the percentage of Muslims among children of school age is very high. For instance, in the Pollokshields ward, where Muslims make up 28% of the overall population, the proportion of 5-15 year olds who are Muslim is 48%.’ Age Profile of Muslim Population in Scotland Age group All Muslims Muslims as % of all Muslims as % of overall Muslim population in age group population 0 to 4 292,821 8,283 2.8% 10.8 5 to 14 561,232 13,191 2.4% 17.2 15 to 24 694,766 13,003 1.9% 16.9 25 to 64 2,856,250 39,733 1.4% 51.8 65 + 890,334 2,527 0.3% 3.3 Total 5,295,403 76,737 1.4% 100 Muslims in 0 to 4 and 5 to 9 year Old Age Bands, 2011 Muslims as % of overall Muslim Age All people Muslim Population Total 5,295,403 76,737 0 to 4 292,821 8,283 10.8 5 to 9 269,617 7,249 9.4 6 Young Muslim Population in Dundee wards with >5% Muslim population All Ages Age 0-4 Age 5-15 Electoral Ward % Muslims All Muslims % Muslims All Muslims % Muslims Maryfield 5.5 674 97 14.4 1,224 121 9.9 West End 5 676 97 14.3 1,292 147 11.4 Total number of Christians at 2011 census + percentage (2001 census figure in brackets) All people Total in 2011 Church of Scotland % Roman Catholic % Other Christian % Scotland 5,295,403 2,848,927 32.4 (42.4) 15.9 (15.8) 5.5 (6.81) Dundee city 147,268 71,720 25.3 18.3 5.1 Estimate of total number of active Christians e.g. attending churches Scottish Church Census: Population and Sunday Church Attendance by Council, 1984-2025E Population Church Attendance Attendance as % of Population 1984 1994 2002 2016 2025 1984 1994 2002 2016 2025 1984 1994 2002 2016 2025 Dundee City 140,860 145,250 144,410 148,510 152,810 20,620 17,750 14,030 9,470 7,150 14.6 12.2 9.7 6.4 4.7 .

  • Dundee and Perth
    A REPUTATION FOR EXCELLENCE Volume 3: Dundee and Perth Introduction A History of the Dundee and Perth Printing Industries, is the third booklet in the series A Reputation for Excellence; others are A History of the Edinburgh Printing Industry (1990) and A History of the Glasgow Printing Industry (1994). The first of these gives a brief account of the advent of printing to Scotland: on September 1507 a patent was granted by King James IV to Walter Chepman and Andro Myllar ‘burgessis of our town of Edinburgh’. At His Majesty’s request they were authorised ‘for our plesour, the honour and profitt of our realme and liegis to furnish the necessary materials and capable workmen to print the books of the laws and other books necessary which might be required’. The partnership set up business in the Southgait (Cowgate) of Edinburgh. From that time until the end of the seventeenth century royal patents were issued to the trade, thus confining printing to a select number. Although there is some uncertainty in establishing precisely when printing began in Dundee, there is evidence that the likely date was around 1547. In that year John Scot set up the first press in the town, after which little appears to have been done over the next two centuries to develop and expand the new craft. From the middle of the eighteenth century, however, new businesses were set up and until the second half of the present century Dundee was one of Scotland's leading printing centres. Printing in Perth began in 1715, with the arrival there of one Robert Freebairn, referred to in the Edinburgh booklet.

  • Scoping Study Into Potential Development Opportunities for Dundee Airport
    SCOPING STUDY INTO POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR DUNDEE AIRPORT SCOPING STUDY INTO POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR DUNDEE AIRPORT Northpoint Aviation Services Ltd in collaboration with RPS Consulting and Reference Economic Consultants Transport Scotland 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Scope of the Study i. The focus of this study has been to evaluate the commercial outlook for Dundee Airport and identify, in the context of a range of short-medium term strategic approaches (or scenarios), potential problems and development opportunities that may undermine, or conversely help to improve its prospects. Based on this analysis, we have then sought to provide a set of overarching (as opposed to design or business case specific) conclusions and recommendations that Transport Scotland, in conjunction with other strategic partners (e.g. HIAL, Dundee City Council and TACTRANS), with an interest in ensuring the airport has a sustainable future, can take forward and implement. ii.
