The table below sets out the breakdown of funding provided by my department for the last five years (2018 until present day). Please note that this table only includes direct government funding from DCMS and excludes funding from Other Government Departments, arms length bodies, local authorities and any other non-DCMS avenues of funding. Girlguiding may also indirectly benefit from other DCMS funding such as that delivered to other uniformed youth groups through the sharing of facilities with Scouts groups for instance.
