Source: grants data published by each funder through 360Giving (GrantNav), grants awarded 23 Oct 2025 to 23 Oct 2026 to registered charities, companies and other organisations (grants to individuals are left out). Cause and region come from the recipient charity's entry on the Charity Commission register (its registered charitable purposes and the postcode area of its registered address), so cause and region snapshots cover recipients registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Open government schemes are from Find a Grant (UK Government) via Grant Radar. "Recurring" programmes have grants in at least two calendar years. Figures are our own summary.
