I join the UK public data sources others overlook (Companies House filings, the ICO register, CQC, GIAS, the Charity Commission) into commercial-grade research and intelligence, and I build data products on top of them. A practitioner-led practice, not a packaged consultancy.
Three capabilities built on the same foundation: UK public registers, properly joined and verified. Engagements are scoped directly with me — no delegation chain, no generic deliverables.
Bespoke UK B2B contact research with verified emails, decision-maker identification, and sector-specific qualification. The opposite of a generic platform export.
Deep-dive investigations on UK entities. Beneficial-ownership trails, filing-history audits, and compliance-flag joins. The things that need real digging rather than a data export.
Custom UK data pipelines, ongoing intelligence feeds, and bespoke joins. For teams who want to own the workflow rather than buy a one-off file.
This is where the work compounds. Each product grows out of the same data and engineering foundations.
UK firmographic intelligence platform. Every active UK company, joined to filed financials, registry flags (CQC, GIAS, Charity), and live intent signals. The data the big platforms do not have, because they ignore the share of UK SMEs that never appear on LinkedIn.
Join the early-access listMetabolic health tracking app for Type 3c diabetics. A focused beta-stage product built from a personal need, now refined collaboratively with a small community.
glycotrace.co.uk Google PlayCompanion app for people managing pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT). Built for Type 3c and EPI users who need more than a generic food diary.
Google PlayAI-assisted CV optimisation tool. ATS-aware rewriting, role-specific tailoring, and feedback loops based on real recruiter signals.
cvbetter.co.ukRefreshed every day from dozens of public UK records, joined and verified into one picture. Companies are masked here; the sectors, signal types, and timing are real.
We watch dozens of public UK records every day for the moments that mark a real business move, not vanity metrics.
Each signal is matched to a real UK company and scored on recency, seniority, and how much is at stake, so the noise drops out.
You get a ranked, contactable shortlist for your sector, refreshed daily. Not a static list scraped once and resold.
Every sector moves differently, so each one has its own tuned signal pack aimed at the moments that matter. We keep the exact sources to ourselves; the outcomes are what you buy.
New venues entering the pipeline, sites changing hands, kitchens fitting out, and teams scaling up before they open.
Schemes entering the planning pipeline, contracts being won, and sites taking on the capital that precedes a spend.
Buildings changing ownership, new tenancies being taken, and premises being re-rated or refurbished.
New stores and outlets, fresh import and stock activity, fit-outs, and relocations into bigger space.
New sites and lines, permit and capacity changes, and operational or quality hiring that signals a step up.
New offices, partner and senior moves, and mandate or panel wins that change what a firm needs to buy.
Authorisation and permission changes, compliance hiring, and structural moves that reshape the buying committee.
Registration and status changes, new services standing up, and clinical or leadership hiring.
Fleet and licence changes, new depots, and the operational scaling that comes with new volume.
Growth-shaped moves, senior engineering hiring, and platform or infrastructure shifts.
New settings and trusts, leadership changes, and supplier or contract wins across the term cycle.
Registration and trustee changes, grant and contract wins, and programmes expanding into new areas.
LW Data Labs Ltd is the operating company for Leon Wilkinson, a UK-based data and insight specialist. The thread through everything is making public data genuinely useful, whether that is for a mission-led organisation or a selective commercial research project. The company was incorporated in February 2026 (originally as GlycoTrace Ltd, renamed in May 2026 as the data-product work outgrew its diabetic-research origins).
My background spans the UK charity and public sector as well as data work. Over my career I have worked with organisations including the Royal British Legion and St John Ambulance, and I am now in a permanent data and insight role in the UK charity sector. That grounding in mission-led organisations shapes how I think about data: usefully, carefully, and with an eye on the people behind the numbers.
The thesis is simple. UK firmographic data is rich, public, and chronically underused. Most lead-generation and market-research tools sample it superficially, or ignore it in favour of LinkedIn scraping. LW Data Labs joins it properly, verifies it carefully, and ships outcomes rather than raw data. Every engagement is direct. You talk to me, not a delegation chain.
A few things people ask before getting in touch.
Public UK sources, joined and verified. Companies House for company and filing data, the ICO register, CQC for care providers, GIAS for education establishments, and the Charity Commission register. The value is in joining these properly, not in any single source.
Yes. I build bespoke UK B2B contact research with decision-maker identification and verified emails, qualified to your sector. It is research scoped to your need rather than a generic platform export.
Selectively. Engagements are scoped directly with me and limited in number so that each one gets proper attention. The best first step is a short note describing what you are trying to solve.
Yes. LW Data Labs Ltd is registered with the Information Commissioner's Office (ref C1934754), and work uses public-register data handled in line with UK GDPR.
TraceB2B is the firmographic intelligence platform the lab is building: every active UK company joined to filed financials, registry flags, and intent signals. It is in development for 2026, and you can join the early-access list from the contact section.
No sales process and no booking funnel. Send a note describing what you are trying to solve, whether it is a selective project, a product enquiry, or early access to TraceB2B, and I will get back within a working day.
