Charities Aid Foundation: UK Giving 2026 report

The latest UK Giving 2026 report from the Charities Aid Foundation provides an updated picture of how people across the UK are giving, volunteering and supporting charitable causes. Published in mid‑March 2026, the report highlights a modest recovery in public generosity following several years of economic pressure, with overall donation levels stabilising and younger donors showing increased engagement. It also notes that while more people are giving online and through contactless methods, traditional cash giving continues to decline. The findings offer an important insight into donor behaviour at a time when many charities are facing rising demand and financial strain, underscoring the need for continued innovation in fundraising and supporter engagement.
