ABOUT THE NOËL COWARD FOUNDATION
The Noël Coward Foundation was set up as a charitable trust in 2000 by Graham Payn and Dany Dasto.

The Foundation is proud to support a diverse range of outstanding organisations working in theatre, music, playwriting, technical training, academic research and many other areas.
