The register tells you a charity exists. Dana House tells you whether it delivers: eight evidence-led scores per charity, peer benchmarks and cause classification, built by reading annual reports, accounts and websites at a scale no research team could. 50,000+ charities carry a full scorecard.
50,000+ fully scored. Counts as of July 2026.
| Income £10m+ | 99.8% scored |
| Income £1m to £10m | 99.7% scored |
| Income £100k to £1m | 99.9% scored |
| Income under £100k | Coverage in development |
Verified against production, July 2026: 50,536 fully scored, 99.9% of active charities with income above £100k. Smaller charities file less, so we score them as evidence becomes available rather than guessing. Where evidence is thin, we say so on the profile.
Every scored charity receives eight independent scores, each calibrated against the full UK charity population, not arbitrary thresholds.
Scores are evidence-led proxies, not audited measures. Select a score for its definition and an example.
Depth and consistency of public evidence, governance and transparency standing.
Funder and grant diversification, freedom from single-backer dependence.
Whether the cause and area is under-served rather than saturated.
Scale and reach relative to peers, beneficiary need and cause severity.
Operational and financial delivery capacity, continuity and stability.
Whether the stated work credibly turns into real delivery.
Quality higher than the charity's visibility would suggest.
Deployment quality of spending and directional financial health.
Breadth across the whole register, depth on the part of the sector that moves money.
The UK has 200,000+ active charities. About 149,000 of them report income under £100k. They are roughly three quarters of the register by number, and about 2% of the more than £100bn the sector moves each year. The 50,000 charities at £100k and above hold the other 98%.
Coverage is reported by income because that is where funding decisions sit. 99.9% of charities with over £100k income are fully scored and classified: 50,536 of the 50,610 active charities in that tier carry a full eight-dimension scorecard, and the coverage holds across every band above £100k.
Smaller charities file less, so we score them as evidence becomes available rather than guessing. The 149,000 charities below £100k are classified with a confidence band, but most file too little public evidence to score on all eight dimensions. Classification runs daily, so depth on the smaller end of the register expands with each run and the threshold moves down over time. Where evidence is thin, we say so on the profile.

We don't resell the register. Every scored charity passes through a multi-stage pipeline, ingested from three national registries, entity-resolved, website-crawled, and weighted against the full UK charity population.
Classification runs daily as new filings arrive. Intelligent scores refresh quarterly, or sooner when a material filing lands. Every profile shows its last-updated date.
Structured charity intelligence for institutions, analysts, and capital allocators. All plans self-serve. No long-term contracts.
