Sharing Wonders UK
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Your work fits best if it sits within the charity's stated themes of education, self-sustaining livelihoods, food assistance, safe water, medical support or Islamic worship, and especially if it is in one of its priority areas: Bangladesh, The Gambia, England or Pakistan.
- The annual report shows giving of £41,446 in its most recent year, so a modest request is more realistic than a large one, and no grant range is published.
- No application process is published in the annual report, the register entry or its website, so contact the charity through the details shown before preparing a full proposal.
- Its published material says nothing about how competitive or relationship-led its giving is, so do not assume either.
- Nothing in the material excludes any type of applicant.
