Depends, don’t see them where I live now but when I was still in the U.K.  it was based on quick judgements…..if someone looked genuinely in trouble I’d slip them a few quid.

When I was young the pro beggars who give you shit when you don’t cough up got their teeth kicked out.

I have bought pasties often for people begging.

I offered a pasty one day and this bloke said I'm a Vegetarian he just wanted money. I told him I'm not buying your smack so f**k off.

To many “professional beggars” now.

The “freelancer “ who comes into town in the morning and begs all day then goes home at night.

The beggars that, usually, are part of an east European immigrant gang who are controlled by gang masters.

So, no, I don’t give to beggars.

There are charities I support, 

Marie Curie.

McMillans.

Veterans charities.

PDSA.

Cheers.

Trouble with charities is how much is actually going to do good and how much is just paying someone's wage .

I dont really have spare cash or money to give away but I always support veterans charities.. and I pay into a few different benevolent funds. Having said that if someone is genuinely needing food ect Id give my last penny to help
