Key takeaways

  • Pin UK's stated priority areas are Africa and Asia, and its themes are emergency response and recovery, climate resilience, and civil society and inclusive governance, so check first whether your work fits these places and themes.
  • Its annual report shows £779,217 paid out, but no grant range is stated, so the sources give no realistic request size and it is worth asking the contact before settling on a figure.
  • No application process is published in the annual report, its register entry or its website, so the sensible first step is to get in touch using the contact shown.
  • The sources say nothing about how competitive its funding is or whether relationships matter, so do not assume either way.
