Dame Vivien Duffield, DBE

Chairman, Clore Duffield Foundation

Dame Vivien Duffield is the chairman of the Clore Duffield Foundation, which aims to support cultural education through arts and heritage organisations and provide leadership training for cultural and social sectors, social care and the enhancement of Jewish life. The Royal Opera House, British Museum and Natural History Museum are among those institutions supported by the foundation. She assumed chairmanship of the Clore Foundation in 1979 on the death of her father Sir Charles Clore, one of Britain’s foremost businessmen and philanthropists who established the charity in 1964. Dame Vivien established her own charity, the Vivien Duffield Foundation, in 1987 to continue her family’s legacy of philanthropy, and she oversaw the merge of the two foundations in 2000 to become the Clore Duffield Foundation. In the past decade, the foundation has distributed more than £50 million to charitable causes.
