London, UK

I'm a freelance researcher, data scientist and developer working mostly with data about UK charities and other non-profits.

I have created and maintained a number of different resources which fill in gaps in data infrastructure and provide building blocks for other projects. I also produce ad-hoc data analysis and research, such as looking at the gender pay gap for charities.

My projects include:

  • findthatpostcode - a resource that makes it easier to use postcode and area data in the UK
  • findthatcharity - a search engine for UK charities and non-profits
  • charity lookups - a set of useful resources for linking charity data together
  • bcp-reader - A python parser for BCP files (like the ones published by the Charity Commission
  • pdf-accounts - helpers for processing financial accounts from PDFs.
  • xbrl-parse - a python library for getting useful data out of ixbrl files

This will cover server costs for findthatpostcode.uk, and allow it to move to a more powerful server. At this level I'll be able to add more features and promote the site more widely.
