Charities

Plus nombreuses qu'en France, les associations caritatives britanniques ont aussi des activités plus variées : elles organisent notamment des ventes de charité (jumble sales), des kermesses, des collectes, des manifestations sportives dont les participants sont parrainés par leur entourage ou par des entreprises locales. Certaines d'entre elles possèdent également un réseau de boutiques (charity shops) situées en centre-ville. De nombreuses associations de renommée internationale, comme Amnesty International et Oxfam, sont nées en Grande-Bretagne.
