Our project will consist of hiring a professional grade 1 instructor to come to our meeting nights in the 10 week run up to competition season. As well as training the main band, they will also do sessions with beginners and intermediate players to gain an insight into professional pipe band playing. This experience will be beneficial for socially disadvantaged players who would not be able to afford an experience like this otherwise. There are also well known benefits to playing a music instrument for mental health and wellbeing.

Funds requested: £400

£20 per night, 2 nights a week for 10 weeks (20 x 2 x 10 = 400)
