Baillie Gifford
Creative Learning Partner
We are delighted that Baillie Gifford is our Creative Learning Partner.
Baillie Gifford is supporting the SCO's pioneering community and education programmes in Edinburgh and right across Scotland.
Thanks to their five-year investment, we will be able to extend the reach and diversity of this important work. Participants build self-belief and confidence, take creative risks, develop empathy and tolerance, and feel their voices are heard, as well as developing a greater understanding and appreciation of music.
Sam Pattman, Sponsorship Manager for Baillie Gifford, said, “As a proud sponsor of the arts, time and time again we have seen the benefits of programmes that have a strong focus on community engagement. This is just one of the reasons why we are proud to be SCO’s Creative Learning Partner. This ambitious five-year programme aims to reach communities across Scotland and we look forward to seeing the impact it has.”
