Spalding ‘suffers poor integration’

Spalding has been named as one of the five worst integrated places in England and Wales.

The index produced by the think tank Policy Exchange used Census data to compare how the English community integrates with ethnic minorities in their area and vice versa.
Spalding came fourth out of 160 towns, behind Boston, Wisbech and Oldham. Amersham in Buckinghamshire was the best integrated.

South Holland District Council declined to comment on the report.
