British Religion in Numbers

For researchers and journalists interested in the intersections of religion and society, British Religion in Numbers (BRIN) is a valuable resource. Hosted by the University of Manchester, BRIN offers a rich collection of datasets and public opinion surveys from Great Britain. The project is headed by a team of British academics: Clive Field of the University of Birmingham, David Voas of the University College London, and Siobhan McAndrew of the University of Bristol. Many of the datasets included in BRIN are based on surveys lead by this team; others are aggregated from other research institutions. One highlight of BRIN is the annual Counting Religion in Britain poll: in the 2017 poll, the BRIN team surveyed 29,000 adults about their religious affiliation. Other recent polls survey public knowledge about the life of Jesus Christ and public attitudes about the trustworthiness of clergy. In addition to these surveys about contemporary religious practices and attitudes, BRIN is also home to historical data about religion in Great Britain.
