About Newcomer Church Attenders:
This Church Attender Profile provides an insight into church attenders who are new to church (not previously attending any church) in the past five years.
Their views and experiences are presented on the NCLS vitality measures of church health.
The Profile is based on responses from church attenders, aged 15 and over, who completed the 2021 National Church Life Survey.
