However, there are alternative assets to consider that may enable you to give to a charity while also potentially enjoying a greater tax benefit for yourself.

Impactful interviews marking the start of Small Charity Week 📢 According to new research from the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO), tens of thousands of small charities are the backbone of our society, offering essential lifelines to many communities. There are around 157,400 small charities in the UK, and they are crucial. Nearly half of Brits believe the government should do more to support them, and over two-thirds say their closure would severely impact local communities. To spotlight this issue, we have arranged interviews with Sarah Elliott, CEO of NCVO, and regional case studies from small charities making a difference. These interviews will discuss how we can support these charities and what the next government must do to ensure their survival and continued impact. #EarnedMedia #SmallCharityWeek #BroadcastPR
