YouGov withdraws survey said to show rising church attendance in England and Wales

Research suggested resurgence in Christianity, especially among young people, but some respondents found to be fraudulent'

A YouGov survey showing a significant rise in church attendance in parts of the UK has been withdrawn after some respondents were found to be fraudulent.

The poll was central to a Quiet Revival report, published by the Bible Society last year, which prompted news stories about an apparent resurgence in Christianity, particularly among young people.
