The Data Services unit collects, analyses, and publishes data relating to a wide range of aspects of the Church of England including:
We use data from the national census and other government statistics to provide parish-level information for the Church of England's 12,500 parishes.
We provide an interactive Church of England parish map, with summary deprivation and census statistics mapped onto parish boundaries. The map also shows parish, benefice, deanery, archdeaconry, diocese, and lower super output area (LSOA) boundaries, and school locations.
Map updated January 2022. Next planned update, autumn 2022.

A user guide for working with the interactive parish map is available. Parish deprivation data can be explored in more detail in the Church Urban Fund's poverty lookup tool.
