Welcome to UKCHARITYPRECINCT a site that promotes numerous UK registered charities you can donate to or find out about them. Clicking on the logos will take you to that well respected charities website or charity shop. Alternatively you can pick a charity by random, from the words displayed. Each word represents an area of work that is associated with that charity. Charities portrayed in this way are ones involved in various fields eg Conservation, Children, Cancer, hospices, poverty, heart, lung and kidney conditions etc . In effect it is a lucky dip. You can then visit that site and donate to that particular charity if you so wish. Alternatively scroll down the page to find descriptions, addresses and contacts of many charities in alphabetical order.

Also available is a page that promotes volunteering and job opportunities within the charity sector or alternatively visit various charities websites to see what they have on offer.
