How charitable is Island?

Survey aims to find out

The popular notion that Manx people are more generous than their neighbours is being put to the test.

Think tank Island Global Research is running a survey on charitable giving habits, measuring views from the Channel Islands and Bermuda as well as the Isle of Man.

Respondents are being asked how much they typically give to good causes, and what kinds of organisation they support over others.

Government figures published last year showed one in three Islanders regularly carried out voluntary work.
