About
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport grants funding to the 15 sponsored museums and other cultural organisations through Grant-in-Aid. This report presents the total income generated by the DCMS-funded cultural organisations through charitable giving (fundraising income), Grant-in-Aid and other forms of income.
The cultural organisations included in this year’s report are: Arts Council England and their National Portfolio Organisations, British Film Institute, British Library, Historic England, and the 15 sponsored museums and galleries.
Revision note: On 29 April 2026, the total income of DCMS-funded cultural organisations 2022/23 report was revised after an error was identified in the commentary. Section 2.2 of the report contained incorrect figures regarding the proportion of Grant-in-Aid to total income, and this has now been updated to the correct 2022/23 figures. Data included in the rest of the report and in the accompanying data tables is not affected by this change.
Please note that institutions occasionally update their historical data, meaning some figures from this release may have since been revised. Users are advised to consult the latest statistical release for the most up-to-date figures.
