There are currently over 700 SIRs on the new-look site, which is expected to grow to over 3,500 when all the relevant returns are submitted. This is the first full year that charities with an annual income of over £1 million have needed to complete an SIR as part of their annual return.

Rosie Chapman, the Commission’s director of policy and effectiveness, said: “The SIR was created as a tool for charities to highlight their achievements and activities as well as meeting growing demands for accountability… I’d encourage charities to see their SIRs as a new opportunity to tell their story.”
