About this data
- Figures are counted from the directory's listings each time the site is published. These were counted on 6 October 2026.
- Types of service group the 19 categories that listings use. The categories each type contains are shown under it.
- An update records an edit to a listing, not a provider confirmation. A listing can be correct and still have an old date.
- Percentages are rounded, so they may not add up to 100.
The full list is available as JSON from the services API. See the API documentation for fields and filters.
