From time to time, the BBFC commissions research, sometimes in conjunction with other regulators. In 1996 it held the fourth international conference for regulators. In 2004, further public consultation was conducted as part of a Guidelines review exercise. Details of this consultation process and the latest Guidelines can be found in the Research section.

The BBFC also makes considerable donations to charitable causes. Some examples of recent donations include funding the restoration of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's The Spy in Black (1939) at the National Film & Television Archive, and funding a UK student for two years to study film-making at The London Film School.  Building on our existing contribution to Film Education, the Board absorbs examiner expenses for attendance at Film Education events (notably National Schools Film Week).
