Live Music Now Scotland makes music freely accessible to those who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity to access it and pays fair rates to the musicians who deliver the activity.
Funding is essential to make this happen and may come from a variety of sources, including individual giving, charitable trusts, grants, public funding and earned income.
We gratefully acknowledge the generous support from the many supporters listed below, and also those who prefer to remain anonymous.
If you are a Trustee of a trust or foundation which could potentially support us, please get in touch with Carol Main, Director – carol.main@livemusicnow.scot or call 0131 332 6356.
