The Strathmore Schools Pipe Band is incredibly grateful to the Gordon Duncan Memorial Trust for their generous support. Your support has had an incredible impact. Thanks to your generosity, we have been able to provide after-school tuition to our young musicians, ensuring they receive high-quality instruction and opportunities to develop their skills.

This additional tuition has made a huge difference — allowing pupils to progress faster, gain confidence, and work together as a band outside of their regular school lessons. The dedication and enthusiasm of our young
people have been truly inspiring, and we were absolutely thrilled to see their hard work pay off when we recently placed 3rd in the Scottish Schools Pipe Band Championships!

Your support has not only helped cover tuition costs but has also given our pupils a sense of pride, teamwork, and achievement that will stay with them for years to come. Thank you for believing in them and in the
power of this project.

Our pipe band project provides free music tuition to over 150 pupils across Blairgowrie and the surrounding rural areas, ensuring that young people have access to high-quality musical education regardless of their background. The Trust’s support has been instrumental in helping us continue this mission, and we deeply appreciate your commitment to nurturing the next generation of musicians.

We are incredibly grateful and look forward to keeping you updated on their continued success!
