Christianity: Ceremonies
Asked by: Neil O'Brien (Conservative - Harborough)
Friday 12th April 2024

Question

To ask the Member for South West Bedfordshire, representing the Church Commissioners, how many confirmations there were in each year since 1994.

Answered by Andrew Selous - Second Church Estates Commissioner

The table below shows the number of confirmations conducted in the Church of England each year since 1994.

As the Established Church, every member of the public, whatever their belief, living within a parish in England has the right to access baptism, marriage and burial services of the Church of England as long as performing that service is lawful under Canon Law.

The detailed data on the number of baptism and confirmation services is published in the annual data ‘Statistics for Mission’.
