      Just donate. You don't have to do anything specific.

      Donate from your Ltd and you can even get tax relief on it.

      If the big names don't float your boat then chucking a tenner a week, or even a month, at your local food bank will make a real, immediate, difference to someone's life.

        Yep, and try and make it something you enjoy, or have a connection with.

        We set up a regular payment to the RSPB as behind us is a massive nature reserve which we regularly take the kids and dog for a walk around

          My wife requested that I set up a page for Cats Protection Bromley Branch if people wanted to give to her charity after her death (we got our cat from them).

          Don't fancy having to do 1000 burpees a day for 10 days.... that would make me

              I will donate to pretty much anything. I have one rule:

              The management costs do not exceed 15%.

              This means that I do not donate to any major charities, but have to put research into smaller ones that use more of my money to help people than to fundraise.

              This requires my time and effort, which I view as a much more productive activity than doing laps of my paddock or jumping jacks.

                If I drank a litre of diet coke I reckon I could do maybe 10 loud burpees, but God only knows how anyone can do 1000 a day!

                  That's where you're going wrong, diet coke! You need proper coke with all the sugar and it helps to swallow a packet of Mentos at the same time
                  Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                    "Proper" coke is "diet" thanks to UK government regulations.
