All-Party Parliamentary Groups
MPs’ own version of a club — any MP or peer can set up an All-Party Parliamentary Group
(APPG) on a topic or country to bring people together across party lines. Register as at 1 September 2026.
Read this before drawing conclusions. Many APPGs are funded or resourced (a “secretariat”
that organises meetings and does the paperwork) by an outside company, charity, or lobbying firm —
Parliament requires that to be declared, and it’s shown here where it is. This only lists officers
(chairs, vice-chairs, treasurers) an MP is registered as, not every MP who’s simply joined a group
as an ordinary member, which isn’t published. Funding values shown are Parliament’s own
figures — often an exact amount, sometimes a banded range, in which case the midpoint is used for
ranking only, never presented as an exact figure.
