Association of Colleges: 30 meetings with ministers and 1 quarter as a lobbying client.
The lobbying registry holds no Companies House number for this organisation yet, so political donations, public contracts and grants are not linked to it here. We link those by number only, never by name.

How we match records
Political donations, public contracts and grants are linked to this page by Companies House number only: the number the Electoral Commission, Find a Tender or the grant record gives, written the way Companies House writes it. Meetings with ministers and consultant lobbying are linked through our checked list of the spellings each organisation is published under. Nothing is linked by name alone, so two organisations with the same name but different numbers have separate pages, and a record that gives no number is not shown here.
