Method

Coverage first, then two parsers on public committee papers. RAG is a delivery rating, not an impact score. Flags mark extracted text and human-checked ratings.

London coverage scan

Not a full audit. Each borough row has a confidence score. ≤ 0.30 means unscanned — treat as unmeasured, not confirmed missing. Scan: 360Giving registry + democracy portal + GrantNav + committee PDFs where accessible.

threesix_status

Whether the council itself publishes award data to 360Giving. Appearing as a recipient does not count.

ACTIVE

Published within the last 12 months

OUTDATED

Most recent file >12 months old

MISSING

No publisher profile found

eval_accessibility

Format of publicly available grant performance — what happened after funding, not award decisions.

STRUCTURED

Per-project rows with extractable fields

NARRATIVE

Prose or aggregate, not per-project

CLOSED

No public performance trail found

award_eval_join

Whether the award layer and the eval layer could be linked. The core gap indicator.

POSSIBLE

Both layers exist and identifiers could link

AWARDS ONLY

Awards published; no public eval

EVAL ONLY

Eval published; no 360Giving award file

NEITHER

Neither layer found publicly

reporting_cadence

Frequency of public performance reporting to committee or a public register.

QUARTERLY

Committee item every ~3 months

ANNUALLY

Annual grant round report

AD_HOC

Appears without a regular slot

NONE

No public cadence found

join_feasibility

Quality of identifiers inside public eval documents.

HIGH

Stable IDs + formal org names (e.g. TH 8xxx)

MEDIUM

Formal names; some ambiguity

LOW

No public eval, or names too informal

Confidence score

0.00–1.00. Rows at ≤ 0.30 are defaults for unscanned boroughs.

0.85+

Committee PDFs read; data observed

0.55–0.84

Landing pages; some PDFs checked

0.31–0.54

Light web search only

≤ 0.30

Default — not scanned

London Councils

Six Grants Committee packs (Mar 2024–Nov 2025). Method: Green 80–100 · Amber 55–79 · Red 0–54 (performance 70% / quality 10% / compliance 20%). Early packs have Table 2; later packs go narrative, so the RAG matrix is human-checked against the papers. Award IDs from the May 2025 360Giving workbook.

London Councils Grants Committee

Meetings index · 6 packs

Tower Hamlets MCGP

Appendix 3 project summaries, eight packs (Nov 2023–Dec 2025). RAG and notes parsed from PDF text. Committee project IDs (8xxx/9xxx). No 360Giving award file for the council as publisher — these IDs cannot yet be joined to 360Giving grants. Officer notes are auto-extracted and may be truncated.

Identifiers we use

We don’t invent a parallel ID space. Align to what already exists.

  • Council — 360Giving org ID GB-LAE-* and ONS E09* on the borough index.
  • TH project — committee Appendix 3 ID. Not a 360Giving grant ID.
  • LC grant — programme ref (01, 03…) plus 360G-LondonCouncils-* and charity number where the workbook has them.

Source packs

Official meeting pages plus the text extracts the parsers ran on. Full list on /sources. Amber ⚠ flags on the explorers mark human-checked RAG or auto-extracted narrative.

What this is — and isn't

Is

Working explorers for Tower Hamlets MCGP and London Councils, from public committee papers

Is

A coverage scan of London boroughs — awards vs eval vs join — with 360Giving GB-LAE-* IDs

Is

Source extracts next to official meeting links, with flags where text was extracted or RAG was human-checked

Not

A join between awards and evaluation — Tower Hamlets committee IDs are not 360Giving grant IDs

Not

A live scan of all 33 boroughs — the coverage index is a static light scan; about 15 rows are unscanned defaults

Not

Affiliated with 360Giving, London Councils, or any borough

Caveats

  • ~15 boroughs are defaults — treat them as unmeasured, not confirmed MISSING/CLOSED.
  • Tower Hamlets join HIGH refers to within-eval corpus matching, not 360Giving join.
  • RBKC quarterly cadence is claimed in the VSSF FAQ; per-project appendix not confirmed — confidence 0.55.
  • GLA is ACTIVE for its full grant portfolio; VCS community grants modelled here may differ.
  • London Councils and GLA are pan-London bodies — they appear as callouts, not map cells.
