Reasons To Believe

• At the Clutha Trust our main focus and objectives are to help develop, encourage, and showcase young people’s talents. In particular young people who feel disadvantaged or have not had the opportunities or chances afforded to others.

• Inclusivity is at the very core of the organisation and a pathway to improved social inclusion and mental well-being be promoted at these public events. Promoting a positive example to the young and to all our communities.

This is achieved by working with other charities, community groups, and educational organisations

RECENT & ONGOING PROJECTS.

• CHARITY HUB Our trustees have over twenty years of experience in commercial property development. This gives us the advantage to negotiate the occupation of empty properties with various landlords. Our charity currently occupies offices of around 60,000sq.ft in Glasgow city centre. We have created a charity hub that facilitates and furnish offices for fifteen different charities

• CLUTHA KIDS We give young musicians/singers the chance to perform on the Clutha stage, leading to the kids performing at two sell-out concerts at the Glasgow Barrowland

• C.A.S.T. The Clutha Actors Studio appoints young graduate actors to perform plays at schools, theatres, and within local communities. The plays carry a message such as anti-bullying and topical subjects such as the power crisis. We always engage with students and pupils by incorporating workshops and inclusion in the plays.

• OFFICE FURNITURE DONATION We source donations of high-quality office furniture and catering equipment from large facility management companies. This equipment is either sold to raise funds or donated to other charities. Over the past three years, we have donated equipment worth over £750,000 to these charities.

• CLUTHA PIZZA FOODBANK We have supplied almost 25,000 handmade pizzas to local foodbanks and community groups

• ART SUPPLY We supply art materials to various schools. The kids then exhibit their work at the Clutha Bar

• GUITAR AND MUSICAL INSTRUMENT DONATIONS. We refurbish and recycle musical instruments for schools, charities, and individuals
