Caroline's Rainbow Foundation

CAROLINE'S RAINBOW FOUNDATION

CRF is a registered UK charity working to raise awareness of the importance of safe travel to young people, whether they are going abroad for independent travel, gap year placements, organised tours or simply thinking about visiting a different country.


Marjorie Marks-Stuttle, together with her son Richard and husband David Marks, established Caroline's Rainbow Foundation after the tragic death of her daughter Caroline Stuttle in 2002 in Bundaberg Australia whilst travelling on her gap year.


Aimed at young travellers, CRF works with the education sector, The Foreign Office and other organisations, trusts and charities to provide easily accessible and helpful information about safe travel. In particular the charity provides information about personal safety abroad and encourages young people to recognise and prioritise life’s values wherever they may be in the world.

Registered Charity number 1095766, Registered Company number 4525003.
