The Trust aims to safeguard Scotland's unique musical heritage, and to help pupils in Scotland develop a unique set of skills for life and learning, by developing state schools pipe bands, and by organising the Scottish Schools Pipe Band Championships. We provide cash grants, lend bagpipes and offer guidance to set up tuition programmes.
Pipe bands encourage skills for life, learning and work.
