I would like to use part of my income to set up a regular monthly charitable donation. I have a couple of charities in mind but really I don't know where the money would be best spent to make a worthwhile difference.

My first thought was Cancer Research UK, but I don't really think my few quid a month will affect their £700m budget at all. Any smaller ones of good reputation?

A small local one. The big ones do great work, of course, but another £1000 doesn't change things much for them, whereas £1000 would make a tangible difference for a small charity

I'd second this

You've made an excellent point! However having volunteered for many charities, some are truly dreadfully run and will squander the money. I'd visit and sound them out, get a feel for them and ask re finances
