What are the main sources of earned income for charities?

In 2016, over a fifth of small charities reported that they earned income via renting out workspaces or room hire. This was the most common way of earning income for small charities.
The second most common way of earning income was through contract delivery (19%).

We define a small charity as a voluntary or community organisation with an annual income of less than £1m.
