listed grants reconcile with the accounts totalextracted from its FY2025 accounts

FY2023: 1 grant totalling £1.4m is listed but excluded from totals: unverified read (amount is larger than the funder’s total spending for the year — probably a units error).

FY2022: all 9 listed grants are unverified reads (£1.4m in total) and are excluded from totals and counts (grantee names (or the pattern of amounts) not found in the accounts text; the amount is not printed in the accounts text).

About this data

This grant list is extracted by automated reading of the grant-maker’s own accounts PDFs as filed with the Charity Commission, and cross-checked against the accounts’ stated grant totals (listed sum 235667 vs reference 235667 (0.0% diff; ref=stated)). Recipients are linked to register entries only on an exact charity-number or unambiguous exact-name match. If you represent this funder or a recipient and want a correction, email [email protected].

Grants marked “Unverified read” were flagged by automated checks as possibly misread from the filed accounts. They stay in the list and the CSV (read_status column) but are left out of the totals, counts and recipient tallies this site computes.
