Charitable giving in the UK: the latest post-pandemic insights

The largest study of giving behaviour in the UK

The UK Giving report explores people’s giving habits throughout the lockdowns of early 2021 and how they have changed with the easing of pandemic restrictions. These changing patterns continued into the first quarter of 2022, against the backdrop of the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine and the rising cost of living.

This report highlights key trends that will assist charities, policymakers, and wider society to better understand the UK’s changing giving landscape. The research is based on monthly interviews conducted online throughout 2021, as well as more recent polling from the first quarter of 2022 (c. 18,000 interviews in total). Some longer-term trend analysis is also included, using monthly data since May 2016.
