In the Levelling Up White paper BEIS committed to work to collect data at a regional level for all of its R&D spend.

UKRI publish detailed breakdowns of their funding data at a regional level annually, the latest available data is on UKRI's website at https://www.ukri.org/our-work/what-we-have-funded/regional-distribution-of-funding/. In addition, the UKRI Gateway https://gtr.ukri.org/

provides data on publicly funded research and innovation which is searchable by year and region.
