Tell them you already donate to their charity.

The tactic is to bore them senseless( if they are commercial people) by offering to tell them your life history and to ask them for donations to help pay for your TV licence or something like that. Charity collectors just throw a quid into their tin and give them a smile

If they come to me I just say no thanks and walk away.
