Founded in 1834 with the intent to gather statistics and data about society and the condition of England, the LSS gained its Royal Charter in 1887. It is still an established statistical society. It has three main roles: a British learned society for statistics, a professional body for statisticians and a charity which promotes statistics for the public good.
