Palestine Solidarity Campaign income surges fivefold since Oct. 7 amid growing UK influence

Before October 7, 2023, PSC registered yearly incomes of around £600,000 to £700,000.

The Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), a UK-based charity focused on building a solidarity movement in support of Palestinians, has seen its income surge more than fivefold since the October 7, 2023 massacre. According to the charity's financial filings, its income increased from £773,886 in the year ending 31 August 2023 to £3,675,576 in the 2024 financial year and further to £3,838,259 in the 2025 financial year.

This represents a remarkable 375% increase in just one year, coupled with a significant increase in costs for campaigning activities. The PSC's influence extends beyond financial gains, as it has reportedly pressured at least 34 UK councils into proposing motions to divest from Israeli-linked companies and influenced local government policies, such as Hackney's decision to de-twin with Haifa and Lewisham's new mayor.
