For the financial year 2017/18 the number of awards, current value of awards, and per capita value of awards made by the Big Lottery Fund in (a) Doncaster and (b) England were as follows:

Awards

Current Value

Population

Per Capita

England

8,412

£330,994,310

55,268,067

£5.99

Doncaster

72

£2,680,923

307,374

£8.72

The value awarded within year may not be equal to spend within year as some payments are made after the date of award, and some awards cover a period of several years.
