How much Big Lottery funding is spent in your local area?
Grants from the Big Lottery Fund provide a crucial source of income for much of the voluntary and community sector. And ensure that important public services are delivered to those in need.

Through the 360Giving Initiative, Big Lottery Fund has published its data on grant funding per head of the population at ward level. And so grantmakers, grantseekers, local authorities and anybody else that is interested can see which areas Big Lottery funding is going to.

This data is now loaded into Local Insight for you to be able to view on maps at a local level, visit: http://local.communityinsight.org/.
