Southerners 'donate more to charity' than their northern counterparts, according to a report

Southerners give more money to charity, donate more often and give larger proportions of their income than those in the North, according to a recent report.

Donating households in London, the South East and the South West claim to give an average of £46 per month, according to the findings by think tank and research consultancy nfpSynergy.

In the North - which, for the purposes of the survey, includes all other regions including Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland - the overall average is just £24."
