The Home Office collects and publishes data on people arrested in England and Wales. The latest data, for the year ending March 2023 is available here:

Stop and search and arrests, year ending March 2023 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

However, the data is collected by broader offence group and by financial year, therefore data relating to specific protest activity is not held.
