Helping Hand for Census Forms from Libraries

With the National Census underway, people who have yet to complete the form because they are having difficulties are being offered assistance at Leicestershire's main libraries.

Free sessions at Blaby, Loughborough, Harborough, Hinckley, Melton, Coalville, Oadby and Wigston Libraries are being offered by library and Census workers for people who might need assistance in completing this mandatory form.

David Sprason, Leicestershire County Council Lead Member for Adults & Communities, said: "Not everybody finds these Census forms easy to complete, and for those who are struggling for whatever reason, our libraries are here to offer a helping hand."
