Charitable organisations

Most charitable and voluntary organisations are looking for people willing to donate time, money and ideas. See Charitable and Voluntary Organisations in your Yellow Pages, or visit www.yell.com to find out contact details for local charities.

The CAF (Charities Aid Foundation) is an international non-governmental organisation which provides specialist financial services to other charities and their supporters. If you are giving or would like to start giving to charities, the CAF can help you to give in the most tax effective way and can advise on what to do when writing a will or holding a charity account.
