Who funds Spinwatch? PDF Print E-mail

Spinwatch is funded by donations, royalties and proceeds from book sales and other writing and research commissions as well as by grant funding.

Unlike the PR and lobbying industries we will always be open about how much money we receive and in the case of specific grants what it is intended to be spent on.

For a breakdown of Spinwatch activities in the first 18 months of the organisation (from January 2005-June 2006) including financial information please see our first Annual Report.
