Home ownership and renting

Housing tenure shows how households in this constituency described their home at the most recent census.

38,383 householdsCensus 2021
Home owners77.9% · 29,915 households
Private renters10.5% · 4,034 households
Social renters11.0% · 4,226 households
Other tenure0.5% · 208 households

“Other tenure” combines shared ownership and households recorded as living rent free.

Housing-tenure figures come from the most recent census: 2021 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2022 in Scotland. View housing-tenure source ↗

Household composition

A broad view of household types in this constituency. Project Open Gov uses the four broad groups supplied by the Commons Library so the presentation remains consistent across the UK.

38,381 householdsCensus 2021
One-person households28.4% · 10,917 households
Families with dependent children24.8% · 9,519 households
Other single-family households44.5% · 17,094 households
Other household types2.2% · 851 households

Household-composition figures come from the Commons Library constituency dataset. The source uses census data and Project Open Gov displays its broad household groups rather than attempting to harmonise the detailed categories itself. View household-composition source ↗

Disability and day-to-day activities

The source records whether day-to-day activities are limited and uses separate person-level tables for England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

88,535 people in the source baseCensus 2021Source comparison: England & Wales
Day-to-day activities limited a lot7.4% · 6,534 people
Day-to-day activities limited a little10.7% · 9,444 people
Not disabled under the Equality Act82.0% · 72,557 people

Comparison note: the workbook uses different source terminology across the UK: England & Wales uses “Disabled under the Equality Act”, while Scotland and Northern Ireland use “Disabled” / “Non-disabled”. Project Open Gov therefore preserves the source categories and does not present them as one single like-for-like UK legal definition.

Disability figures come from the Commons Library constituency workbook. This profile uses the person-level tables only; the workbook also contains separate household-level disability tables which are not used here. View disability source ↗

Out of the Margins - Written reflections of 150 years of queer artistry

Writers at Play

£26,090

The National Lottery Heritage Fund · Heritage

About this award

Through the “Out of the Margins” project, we aim to increase access to and engagement with queer heritage for older adults. We want to ensure that stories and voices that have historically been marginalised are better understood, valued and celebrated. By working with content from the Special Collection at Birmingham’s Cadbury Research Library, we will highlight 150 years of queer artistry and make this material accessible in innovative, creative and inclusive ways. Our aim is not only to preserve and interpret heritage, but also to create opportunities for older people to connect with it meaningfully. By responding through our own poetry and creative writing, participants will build confidence, skills and a sense of ownership of these histories. The project will result in new written work that places contemporary voices alongside archival materials, increasing awareness and visibility of queer heritage, whilst strengthening understanding of its cultural importance.
