Where can I find statistical and demographic information, and help with using such data?

The MRS Census and Geodemographics Group publishes a number of resources on finding and using Census and geodemographic data. In particular the Geodemographics Knowledge Base (www.geodemographics.org.uk) is a very useful gateway for demographic sources of information.

In addition the following websites are useful sources of, and gateways to, statistical and demographic information:

National Statistics (www.statistics.gov.uk) provides official UK statistics.
Nomis (www.nomisweb.co.uk) is a source of official UK labour market statistics.
UK Data Archive (www.data-archive.ac.uk) is a resource centre for digital data in the social sciences and humanities.
Information Centre about Asylum and Refugees in the UK, ICAR (www.icar.org.uk) has statistical and other information on these communities.
The Statistical Office of The European Commission (www.europa.eu.int/comm/eurostat/) provides European statistics.
