- Area
- each place's own footprint, shown beside its bar — measured at postcode level and summed to this area
A single large charity registered at a local address can dominate this figure without spending anything locally. Expenditure is what a charity spent, not what it spent here — the register records neither. A charity whose registered postcode no longer resolves is counted nowhere, as it is for the count of registered charities — but a count loses one charity where this loses the whole of that charity's spending, so the same handful of postcodes can move this figure much further. Measured 05/09/2026: three such postcodes across Dorset and BCP, carrying three charities with £154,916 of spending between them, all of it one charity — the same single-charity effect as the first sentence, in the other direction. Which places those three would have counted towards is not known, so this says three postcodes rather than three places: most places lose nothing at all. Charities whose registered postcode cannot be read are lost on top of this and are not counted here.

A single large charity registered at a local address can dominate this figure without spending anything locally. A charity whose registered postcode no longer resolves is counted nowhere, as it is for the count of registered charities — but a count loses one charity where this loses the whole of that charity's income, so the same handful of postcodes can move this figure much further. Measured 05/09/2026: three such postcodes across Dorset and BCP, carrying three charities with £133,738 of income between them, of which £133,638 is one charity — the same single-charity effect as the first sentence, in the other direction. Which places those three would have counted towards is not known, so this says three postcodes rather than three places: most places lose nothing at all. Charities whose registered postcode cannot be read are lost on top of this and are not counted here.

Counts charities whose registered address falls in the area, which is not the same as where they operate. Trustee names are personal data, are outside the OGL grant and are never held. A charity is placed by resolving its registered postcode to an output area. Some cannot be: the register's addresses go stale, postcodes are retired, and 1,797 entries nationally carry a postcode that does not parse at all ("BH23:1AB", "BH8 OAD"). Those charities are counted nowhere rather than guessed at, so this is a count of the charities Ezra can place and may be slightly short. Measured 03/09/2026: three postcodes across Dorset and BCP that no longer resolve, plus an unknown share of the unreadable ones. "No longer resolve" is what was measured rather than "retired": the lookup answers the same way for a postcode that was withdrawn and for one that never existed, and a mistyped address gives the second.
