Peter Virdee invited to join Coutts & Co Private Bank UK Philanthropy board

Peter Virdee has been honored and is delighted to be joining the board of Coutts & Co Private Bank UK Philanthropy.

“In charity there is no excess”
Francis Bacon (1561-1626) British statesman and philosopher.

Coutts private bank, have an impressive 300 years history of involvement in the charity sector. Most famously, Angela Burdett-Coutts was one of the greatest Victorian philanthropists of her day making unprecedented inroads into helping those less fortunate than herself.

Today this charitable tradition is proudly upheld. The Coutts Charitable Trust and the Coutts Foundation maximize the impact of giving by supporting numerous good causes.

Unquestionably by far the most important part of Peter Virdee’s values and beliefs is that of helping others, those that are in need. In recognition of Peter’s contributions and willingness to always help others in need, Peter has been requested to sit on the Coutts UK Philanthropy board.

“I have spent my life earning money, but my wealth has come from what I have given”
