Keywords: Charitable Giving in the UK, Giving Behaviour, UK Giving Report 2023, Giving Trends, Philanthropy, Volunteering, Fundraising, Cost Of Living Crisis, Donations, Philanthropists, Charity Resilience. Description: Charities Aid Foundation’s UK Giving research is the largest study of giving behaviour in the UK, with survey responses from a representative sample of the public each month. Around 13,000 responses were received in total. Some longer-term trend analysis is also included, using data collected over the past five years. This year’s report offers insights into how the cost-of-living crisis is impacting donations, and how the landscape has changed since the pandemic, seemingly permanently. In this episode we discuss the findings in the report including trends in public giving. We also hear about the giving behaviour of high new worth individual philanthropists who CAF work with and we consider what all this means for charities now and in the future. Our guests: Catherine Mahoney is Research Manager at the Charities Aid Foundation specialising in philanthropic giving trends. Mark Greer is Managing Director, Giving and Impact at Charities Aid Foundation. He leads CAF’s philanthropy services in the UK, including donor advised funds for private clients, corporate giving services, grant making services and social investment arm, Venturesome. * Transformational Fundraising Tactics – SPECIAL OFFER Transformational Fundraising Tactics is a series of live online courses, from UK Fundraising, to help fundraisers raise more money and improve their effectiveness.
