The chart examines the levels of donation contributions by British people of different ages in two different years - 1990 and 2010.
Overall, a greater percentage of British people gave money to charity in 1990 than in 2010 except for the people who were over 50 years old. It is worth noticing that, elder people donated more for charity than their younger counterparts.
In 1990, 42% of the 36-50 age-group in Britain made charitable donations, and this figure is the highest on the chart. The 18-25s contributed the least at only 17%. By 2010, these figures had fallen significantly to 35% and 7% respectively. The level of donations from the 26-35 age-group also experienced a decrease in 2010 from 31% to 24%.
While donations up to the age of 50 declined across the two years, they rose among the 51-65 age-group from 35% to nearly 40%, which was the highest percentage for 2010. The figure for the over 65s was lower than this, at 35% but it was still a little higher than the 1990's figure of 32%.
