In 2019, before the Covid Pandemic, the regular numbers of people attending Church Services, including the worshipping community (individuals who regularly attend Church of England services) was around 1.1 million and weekly attendance was approximately 854,000.
Throughout the two years consumed by Covid, church attendances were significantly impacted with individuals, couples and families being ordered to stay at home and isolate and there was a large decrease in both weekly and Sunday attendance in 2020 and 2021. Then in 2024 when restrictions were lifted and people could once again mingle freely; Church congregations slowly began to rise and in 2024 those who once again attended services regularly, grew to 1.02 million. Still significantly lower numbers than before Covid but as staunch believers returned to their Churches they looked for ways to encourage others to follow suit and bring the people back to Church.
