Donations to the MP's local party accounting unit. Most don't appear in the MP register because they aren't earmarked for the MP personally — but they fund the constituency machinery the MP relies on. Company donors carry a Companies House link for one-click director/PSC investigation. Postcodes are redacted by EC for individual donors.
