I do not know the answer to your question. If, as you say, £10,000 does not go far to finance such a recording- and I would guess from the wording of your post that you know a great deal more about this than I do ;D-then clearly additional funding must have come from somewhere. The Ina Boyle cd-and by the way her musixc is well worth hearing :)-was recorded by the BBC Concert Orchestra and I might hazard a guess that the BBC had "some involvement".
We are back into the murky waters of how much cds cost to make and who pays for them ::) The Havergal Brian Society is raising (has almost raised) £100,000 to record the Opera "Faust". The hugely expensive Dutton recording of Brian's Symphonies Nos. 2 and 14 was almost aborted but was saved by a gift of £40,000 from an incredibly generous member (now sadly deceased) of the HBS. The forthcoming Linn Records release of Thomas Wilson symphonies was (very probably) privately funded.
I have been critical of companies like Dutton for not providing more information on forthcoming releases but I can fully understand that "where the money comes from" is not a subject which they are going to discuss openly.
