Sources:
• Office for National Statistics (ONS) – Census 2011 & 2021 data on families, and Labour Force Survey analyses of lone parent households by ethnicity .
• UK Government Ethnicity Facts and Figures – data on household types and single-parent prevalence by ethnic group .
• Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities Report (March 2021) – highlighted the lone parenthood rates (63% Black Caribbean, etc.) and linked absent fathers to outcomes .
• Commons Library Briefing 8960 (May 2021) – summarized race disparities data, including family breakdown stats .
• Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) reports (2013 “Fractured Families”, etc.) – provided figures on fatherless households (e.g. 1 million children with no father contact) and qualitative insights on crime .
• Prison Reform Trust (2013) – data on prisoners’ family background (76% of young male inmates had absent fathers) .
• Gingerbread (single parent charity) – factsheets with recent stats: number of single parents, proportion who are mothers, child poverty rates, etc. .
• Institute for Family Studies analysis (Harry Benson, 2021) – discussed the UK’s race report and family breakdown, noting 22% of UK children in lone-parent homes and ethnic differences .
• Academic research (e.g. University of Lincoln & Marriage Foundation 2021 analysis) – examined ethnicity and family stability, finding Black fathers more likely to separate (all else equal) .
• Family Court statistics (via MoJ and summaries by charities) – indicated ~89% of single parents are mothers and low prevalence of 50/50 shared care .
• Qualitative studies and commentary – e.g. ACT CIC blog on fatherless homes , Youth Endowment Fund reports , and others providing context on how father absence affects youth behavior and what might be done.
All these sources consistently highlight the critical influence of father absence in shaping the lives of Black British children and provide the evidence base for the assertions made in this report. Addressing this issue remains a challenge and a priority for the coming years, with the hope that strengthening families will yield positive changes across generations.
