The Ellie Soutter Foundation Revenue

About The Ellie Soutter Foundation

The purpose of the Foundation is to identify and provide support, for young people born in the United Kingdom, who have a demonstrable talent for winter sports, who would otherwise be unable to maximise their potential because of a lack of financial resources. This will be achieved by providing grants for equipment, training, travel, competing and accommodation. The grants will be restricted to those individuals who can demonstrate that their own family circumstances dictate that the opportunity to develop their talent would be denied to them, without this financial support. Winter sports are perceived as the preserve of wealthy people and the pressures on young, less privileged individuals are immense. The inspiration for this trust was provided by one such person who battled with these pressures and ultimately took her own life. The trustees wish to provide a safety net for such individuals and, as far as possible, alleviate one of the burdens that they face. The public benefits are: • Promoting social mobility by lowering the barriers for less wealthy young people to advance in sports typically seen as the preserve of the better off. • Assisting young people to develop their skill sets and maximise their potential. • Providing assistance for those for whom the challenge may have caused or be causing mental health issues.
