I would like to use part of my income to set up a regular monthly charitable donation. I have a couple of charities in mind but really I don’t know where the money would be best spent to make a worthwhile difference.
My first thought was Cancer Research UK, but I don’t really think my few quid a month will affect their £700m budget at all. Any smaller ones of good reputation?
I donate to Crisis at Christmas to assist homeless people, and would happily give them more throughout the year if I could.
The RNLI is vital and only funded through charitable donations.
I have a soft spot for any of the hospice charities, such as St. Catherine’s Hospice (our local one). There’s also a good one in the Midlands for terminal children and their parents called Acorn’s Children’s Hospice.
Edit: the wife is voting for Guide Dogs.
