arranmusicschool No comments Arran

Summary

We are looking to fund our pipe band practices for our project for the year. We currently have a weekly pipe band practice as part of our charity each week which currently involved around 25-30 pupils of the Isle of Arran Music School. This entails the pipe band practicing for upcoming contests, events and concerts that happen all over Scotland. In these weekly band practices they learn many differnent skills for life including team working, working out new problems, time management, leadership. 

Description

£30 a week for 40 weeks in the year to fund our weekly pipe band pratice. The total for the year is £2400 however, we are seeking £1000 towards this.

The £30 an hour would be used to cover the costs of the tutors (one piping and one drumming) needed to run the band practices each week.
