I know an internet search can show the options, but not all charities are created equal. I really just want to know what charities are known for using the donations sensibly, and if there are any that are in dire need of extra funds more than others.
Shelter and St. Mungo’s deal with helping the homeless and those under threat of homelessness.
Don’t under any circumstances give anything to the Salvation Army, as they discriminate against LGBT people and push a religious conservative agenda.

Haha exactly why I asked this kind of question; good dodge.
Both Shelter and St. Mungo’s look quite good, so I might just set up donations to both.
Go buy homeless people in the street some food or warm clothing.
Giving money to charities ends up paying for CEOs yachts
Do not offer street homeless people shelter unless you have the skills, training and abilities necessary to support them long term, including dealing with the underlying issues which led to the person becoming street homeless in the first place and the subsequent issues which have kept them there.
Polly Neate makes £122,500 as the CEO of Shelter. That’s good money but much less than her skills could demand on the open market, and a damn far ways off yacht money. Please don’t spout this ardent nonsense.
