"Last month marked the 175th anniversary of the legal restoration of the Catholic Church in 1850. Pope Pius IX issued the papal bull Universalis Ecclesiae, restoring the Catholic hierarchy in England and Wales and creating 13 new dioceses."
"Earlier this year, the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales published figures revealing that mass attendance in 2023 — the most recent statistics available — grew from 503,000 in 2022 to 555,000.
Figures released for the number of adults completing the rite of Christian initiation for adults have indicated a significant rise.

Westminster recorded receiving 500 new entrants, most of whom are new converts. Many of these new Catholics are in their twenties and thirties."
