Please provide the data in a machine-readable format (e.g. CSV or Excel, where possible). To make this easier, I’ve created a template here showing the preferred format for the data, but I’m happy to receive it in any structure that is most convenient. If you use the template, please ensure you make a copy first before entering your data.
