UK Census: Why LGBTQ+ community says census is important

Why taking part in the UK census is so important for the LGBTQ+ community It s the first time it will collect data on the population s sexual orientation and gender identity. Mar 11, 2021 If you live in England or Wales, you ve likely received a Census 2021 letter in the past few weeks ahead of census day (March 21). The census is a once-in-a-decade data gathering survey, and this year is the first time it ll be possible to fill it in online. It s also the first time the census will collect data about the population s sexual orientation and gender identity. This means it s more important than ever for LGBTQ+ people to take part in the census. Some queer people are so excited about this that they re sharing photos of them filling in the census with the Twitter hashtag #ProudToBeCounted. While everyone must complete the census by law (or face a fine of up to £1,000), questions around sexuality and gender identity are voluntary. Scotland s Census will be conducted in 2022

The guidance reads: “If you are considering how to answer, use the sex recorded on one of your legal documents such as a birth certificate, gender recognition certificate, or passport.
