Charity register research tool

UK charity number lookup and official register cross-check

Search by charity number, name, or postcode in the selected UK Charity Intelligence import, then open the official Charity Commission register for final verification. This tool is useful for quick research, but it is not the full official register and does not rate, recommend, or certify charities.

Search fieldsNumber, name, postcodeUses the imported selected sample behind the lookup API.

CoverageSelected sampleNot every registered charity is imported here.

Final checkOfficial registerAlways verify live records with the Charity Commission.

RatingNoneNo fraud, safety, quality, impact, or donation recommendation score.

Charity number, name, or postcode

Open official register

Queries return only the current imported sample. Use the official register for complete live charity records.

How to interpret results

A result here means the charity appears in the selected imported sample, not that the full register has been searched.
An absent result does not mean the charity is unregistered, inactive, unsafe, or unsuitable. Search the official register before drawing conclusions.
Open the official register record before donating, awarding funds, publishing claims, sharing a fundraising page, or relying on contact details.
Use the charity due diligence checker for a fuller public-source checklist after finding the record.
