It looks like I need the PERL GD and RRDs modules.
I need to find a reputable source from where these can be downloaded (preferably with installation instructions!), as our security policy doesn't allow anything to be automatically downloaded to our servers, without them scanning it first.
What version of Nagios Core are you running? We've seen a lot of issues with the latest version with Nagiosgraph. People have had more success with https://docs.pnp4nagios.org/. To be 100% clear, neither Nagiosgraph nor pnp4nagios is our product.
This is not to say we can't try to get your Nagiosgraph working. Maybe your OS is different and thus there will be better package compatibility. I just don't want you to waste a lot of time here on something we don't actually support.
I appreciate that you don't provide support for NagiosGraph, I was more interested in where to find the tools to get it up and running and was under the impression that it was the go-to product for Nagios Graphing - are you recommending PNP4Nagios on the basis of functionality, or is it just that it's less likely to give me grief?
What OS are you running? I think I've tried to install nagiosgraph on Debian and CentOS. I should be able to figure out what exactly I installed for that.
FWIW, there are a fair amount of related packages. You should be able to download the deb or rpm, scan and then install on the server. I can give exact commands once I know the system.

The go-to product for graphing in Nagios is Nagios XI. The vast amount of plugins on Nagios Exchange are 3rd party products. We try to help, but they are provided as-is.
After much intervention from our InfoSec team to install half the known universe, with Perl and RRDs installed successfully, I'm now getting the following:
