Department for Culture, Media and Sport Indicator Data
Input indicators
The input indicators show what is being ‘purchased’ with public money against the key structural reform priorities i.e. the resources being invested into delivering the impacts that the Department and our public, private and voluntary sector partners are aiming to achieve. They do not reflect the entire value of the sectors that we fund. Neither do they cover all the resources being invested into delivering the impacts that the Department and our public, private and voluntary sector partners are aiming to achieve.

Impact indicators
Our impact indicators are designed to help the public to judge whether our policies and reforms are having the effect they want. It is difficult to quantify the true impact of culture, sport and heritage on people’s lives, but these indicators aim to give a broad picture of how the Department is performing.
