Financial summary

A 2022 external evaluation described PBI UK as ‘a strong human rights organisation punching above its weight on a small budget’.

We are proud to offer our donors exceptional value for money. However, in the face of increasing demands for support, rising inflation, and a desire to offer the best quality activities and impact, we have set ourselves the target of doubling our 2022 income by 2026.

We are extremely grateful to our donors who are enabling us to stay on track for that target and to provide the support for human rights defenders.

We would like to dedicate our ongoing work to Mrs Elizabeth Lawrence, who left a generous legacy to PBI UK when she sadly passed away in 2022. PBI UK’s Board and Director have decided to spend down this legacy as if it were a 3.5 year grant, allowing us a cushion of sustainability upon which to implement our updated strategy. We are extremely grateful.
