With Census Day having fallen on the 27th March we were joined this evening by Kevin Beck, our Census area manager. Kevin and his team have been active for months now encouraging people to take part in the Census by explaining how the information collected makes a practical difference to peoples everyday lives by ensuring that local authorities receive their fair share of central government funding to run its public services - like leisure centres, rubbish collection and public transport.
As well as explaining to the Club how the Census information is collected and used Kevin also gave us a potted history of census.
Census Day having passed the hard work starts now for Kevin's team as they begin to visit every household still to submit their return to give help and encouragement so as to ensure that the census information is as complete as possible. Their hard work in serving the community in this way is appreciated by all in the Club.
