Eight scores. Zero interpretation required.

Every charity scored across eight intelligent measures. Free accounts see the headline scores as numbers. Each is an evidence-led proxy, not an audited measure, with breakdowns, history, and peer benchmarks unlocked on paid tiers.

Trust

Depth and consistency of public evidence, governance and transparency standing.

Independence

Funder and grant diversification, freedom from single-backer dependence.

Cause neglect

Whether the cause and area is under-served rather than saturated.

Significance

Scale and reach relative to peers, beneficiary need and cause severity.

Execution strength

Operational and financial delivery capacity, continuity and stability.

Impact plausibility

Whether the stated work credibly turns into real delivery.

Hidden gem

Quality higher than the charity's visibility would suggest.

Funding efficiency

Deployment quality of spending and directional financial health.

What you get with NI coverage

🇬🇧

CCNI-native coverage

Every Northern Ireland charity registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland, ingested daily from the official API. Separate from England & Wales, not merged.

📊

Eight intelligent scores per charity

Trust, Independence, Underserved cause, Significance, Execution strength, Impact plausibility, Hidden gem, and Funding efficiency. Each is an evidence-led proxy, not an audited measure. No raw data to interpret.

🔍

Benchmarks within Northern Ireland

Scores calibrated against the NI charity population. A mental health charity in Belfast is benchmarked against its NI sector peers, not against a pool dominated by English organisations.

⚡

API and CSV delivery

Pull NI charities via REST API or bulk CSV. Filter by cause area, score band, income tier, or county. Schema-stable, versioned, with daily ingest.

💡

Hidden gem detection

Northern Ireland has a structurally underfunded charity sector. Hidden Gem scoring surfaces high-evidence organisations receiving disproportionately less funding than comparable charities elsewhere.

📋

Regulatory compliance data

CCNI registration status, trustee information, filing history, and annual return data - normalised alongside OSCR and CCEW data under one schema.

Common questions

How many Northern Ireland charities are covered?
Every charity registered with the Charity Commission for Northern Ireland is ingested - approximately 6,000 registered charities. Intelligent scores are computed for those with sufficient evidence to score meaningfully.
Is Northern Ireland coverage comparable to England & Wales?
The scoring methodology is identical. Some NI charities will have lower evidence depth scores because they publish less documentary evidence - that reflects a real difference in transparency, not a gap in our coverage.
How is this different from searching CCNI directly?
CCNI gives you registration data and filing records. Dana House adds eight intelligent scores (Trust, Independence, Underserved cause, Significance, Execution strength, Impact plausibility, Hidden gem, Funding efficiency) built from underlying signals, cause classification, peer benchmarks, financial health signals, and evidence extraction. You get a decision layer, not a register lookup.
Can I export NI charities alongside Scottish and English charities?
Yes. By default, exports and API responses cover all three registers. Add a jurisdiction or regulator filter to limit to CCNI. The full cross-register export includes a jurisdiction field so you can segment downstream.
