What is the amount and proportion of income by charity size?

In 2019/20, small charities accounted for nearly one-fifth (17%) of the total income, and make up 96% of the overall number of charities in the sector.
Charities with an income of between £10m – £100m account for nearly a third (32%) of the total income, despite comprising less than 1% of the number of charities.

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