The other thing about charity... if you do self-assessment tax returns and declare your donations to registered charities then the government give you some money back. I'm not sure of the figure, something like 25% perhaps? Anyhow... it's a nice way to offset any financial hurt from being brassic some of the months of the year (and having that "if i hadn't given to charity" moment), you know you get a bit of windfall back to you just before Christmas (if you filed in September), and if you're not in need of it then you have the means to give even more to the causes you favour. It's definitely worth giving more than a small amount if you're self-assessing and can afford to make such donations.
