Many charities have benefited from having each donation doubled in this year’s edition of the annual Christmas Challenge.
The Big Give’s flagship campaign ran from 28 November to 5 December and raised £11.3 million, split between 528 participating charities.
Homelessness charity The Passage was particularly popular with donors, amassing £233,000 according to official figures.
Inspired by the Christmas Challenge’s success, Breaking Views asked festive shoppers which charities they support.
“The main one I support is the RNLI, because I’m a sailor and I think of it as a bit of insurance,” said one shopper.
