Households across Nottinghamshire are being asked to take part in Census 2021.
Census day is on March 21, but households will now be receiving letters with online codes explaining how they can complete their forms.
If you don’t get one in the next couple of weeks, please get in touch with the census contact centre. You can also request a paper questionnaire if you’d prefer to complete your census that way.
Local census support centres will be open while the census is happening. Staff will offer help for people not confident online, who don’t have a computer or need help completing on paper.
The census is a once-in-a-decade survey that gives us the most accurate estimate of all the people and households in England and Wales.
It has been carried out every decade since 1801, with the exception of 1941.
For more information, and to find out how to get help, visit census.gov.uk or call the contact centre on 0800 141 2021.
A statement from Councillor Barbara Corrigan, Mayor of Newark Town Council
“We are deeply saddened and disappointed by horrific acts of vandalism at Sherwood Avenue Park over the weekend. This cherished community space, which has seen significant investment and care, was defaced with offensive graffiti, equipment has been ripped out of the ground entirely and horse manure was left in the park.
The NHS Blood and Transplant Service are calling on local people to help fill available blood donation appointments at their Nottingham Donor Centre over coming days and weeks to help boost their blood stock levels.
DAB deal signals massive expansion in Radio Newark’s reach. Radio Newark's potential audience reach is set to expand dramatically after the community station’s board of directors accepted an offer to have its output relayed by Nottingham DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting).
This year is set to be a busy one in Newark with a whole host of events set to take place in the market town over the next few months. From Artisan Markets to the CAMRA Beer Festival and ‘Race to the Castle’ (a paddle board event) to the popular Steampunk Festival, there’s lots for families and friends to get involved with.
