Terms of use

Charity Register UK (this site) is a reading layer over the public UK charity register, operated by Digital Signet. We are not the Charity Commission. The authoritative UK charity register is at register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk.

Where there is any conflict between information shown on this site and the official record at the Charity Commission, the official record prevails.

You may:

• Browse, search, and view information on this site without charge
• Link to any page on this site
• Quote and excerpt information shown on this site provided you credit the Charity Commission under the Open Government Licence v3.0 and link back to the original source
• Download data via the export tools provided, subject to the terms of those tools

You may not:

• Use this site for any purpose that breaches UK law
• Use automated scraping, crawling, or robots to systematically harvest data from this site outside of the export tools provided. If you need bulk data, fetch it directly from the Charity Commission's bulk register download (register-of-charities.charitycommission.gov.uk/register/full-register-download) under the same Open Government Licence we use.
• Resell or republish significant portions of the data as if it were your own dataset
• Use the site or its data to harass, defame, or threaten a specific charity, its trustees, or its staff

This site is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that the information is accurate, complete, up to date, or fit for any particular purpose. The Charity Commission publishes charity data as filed by charities themselves; financial figures and trustee lists may be out of date relative to a charity's actual current state, and our daily refresh cadence means our information can lag the official record by a day or two.

A charity's presence on the register is not an endorsement of its activities, fundraising practices, or governance. Conversely, a removal date is not always a finding of wrongdoing - many charities are removed because they wound up voluntarily, merged into a larger charity, or fell below the registration threshold.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Digital Signet, its operators, employees, and contractors are not liable for any loss or damage, direct or indirect, arising from your use of this site or reliance on information shown here, including but not limited to lost profit, lost opportunity, business interruption, or reputational harm.

Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded under UK law.

The underlying charity data is published by the Charity Commission under the Open Government Licence v3.0. You may re-use it under that licence. Crown copyright applies to the data itself, attributed to the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

The site's code, design, written editorial content (eg the explainers at /about and /methodology), data visualisations, derived statistics (eg the rankings on /notable), and brand are © Digital Signet. You may quote and reference with attribution, but you may not republish them wholesale or pass them off as your own.

We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or otherwise connected to the Charity Commission, His Majesty's Government, or any charity appearing on the register.

How we handle visitor and trustee personal data is set out in our privacy notice.

We may change these terms from time to time. The “last updated” date at the top of this page will change accordingly.

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. The courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these terms or your use of this site.
