POPULATION 59,778,002

ANGLICAN (INCLUDING THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND) 39.4 percent

ROMAN CATHOLIC 12.5 percent

PRESBYTERIAN (INCLUDING THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND) 5.5 percent

OTHER CHRISTIAN 8.2 percent

MUSLIM 2.7 percent

HINDU 1.0 percent

SIKH 0.6 percent

JEWISH 0.5 percent

BUDDHIST 0.3 percent

OTHER 0.3 percent

NO RELIGION 29.0 percent

However according to a" poll conducted by YouGov in March 2011 on behalf of the BHA, when asked the census question 'What is your religion?', 61% of people in England and Wales ticked a religious box (53.48% Christian and 7.22% other) while 39% ticked 'No religion'.

When the same sample was asked the follow-up question 'Are you religious?', only 29% of the same people said 'Yes' while 65% said 'No', meaning over half of those whom the census would count as having a religion said they were not religious. "

because of this it can be hard to get an exact figure on it as often people might consider themselves to culturally belong to one region without actually being religious!
