Accounts grants total not shown: this filing has grants flagged as unverified reads.

reconciliation not assessedextracted from its FY2025 accounts

FY2025: all 67 listed grants are unverified reads (£2k in total) and are excluded from totals and counts (the grant list adds up to far more (or far less) than this charity’s own reported spending and income for the year, so the list is set aside for checking (often a misread; sometimes multi-year awards or a register figure that is itself wrong)).

Cross-checked against the funder’s own 360Giving open-data publication: 19 of 21 grants we extracted from its FY2024 accounts match a published grantee by name (90%), and 1 also match on amount within 2%. Differences usually reflect accounting-year vs award-date timing and grants the accounts aggregate. Published 360Giving grants in the file: 26,288.

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. 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.
