The bar graph illustrates the percentage of people in the UK who donated to charity across different age groups from 1990 to 2010. Overall, it is evident that older age groups, specifically those aged 51 and above, experienced an increase in the number of individuals donating to charity, while younger age groups saw a decline.
In the age range of 18 to 25, the percentage of donors was the lowest for both years, starting at around 17% in 1990, before decreasing further to just 7% over the next 20 years. Similarly, middle-aged individuals aged 26 to 50 also witnessed a decline of approximately 7%. For the subgroup of 26-35 year-olds, the percentage dropped from around 31% to 24%, while those in the 36-50 age range fell from 42% to 35%.
In contrast, older age groups began with a donation percentage in the 30s in 1990 and saw increases over the years. Specifically, the percentage for those aged 51-65 rose by approximately 4%, and for individuals above 65, it increased by around 3%.
