About PublicAudit.uk

PublicAudit.uk is an independent project that helps people find public information and make Freedom of Information requests in plain English.

It provides practical guidance, copyable request templates and a growing map of UK public authorities, their contact routes and the information they may hold.

The project is designed for ordinary people, including those who have never made an FOI request before.

What we do

  • • Explain Freedom of Information in plain English.
  • • Provide clear, copyable FOI templates.
  • • Map UK public authorities and their FOI contact routes.
  • • Publish and improve information based on verified responses.

Independence

PublicAudit.uk is independent. It is not affiliated with the UK Government, the Information Commissioner's Office or any political party. The website provides general guidance, not legal advice.

Accuracy

Contact details are gathered from official sources and FOI responses. Suggested information areas may be based on an organisation's published responsibilities and may not yet have been confirmed. Details change over time — always verify through the organisation's official website before sending a request.

Built to help people

PublicAudit.uk is an independent project built in my free time to help ordinary people find public information and make Freedom of Information requests more easily.

The aim is to make the process clearer, less intimidating and more accessible, especially for people making their first request.

If you spot an error, find a broken contact address or have an idea that could improve the site, please get in touch.
