Coutts Foundation

Overview

Women & Girls

The Foundation's focus is supporting UK organisations or programmes that support women and girls and organisations that empower young people through the performing arts, with a particular focus on addressing the causes and consequences of poverty.

They currently support women and girls charities that:

• Intervene early and seek to prevent violence against women and girls
• Empower women and girls to move beyond the trauma they have experienced and flourish
• Support children who have experienced or are at risk of experiencing domestic abuse

They continue to identify specialist women and girls organisations and particularly those that are led by and for black and minoritised women and girls.

Young People through Performing Arts

They currently support charities that empower young people through the performing arts, particularly those co-created with young people in some of the most deprived areas of the country.
