Charitable trusts and foundations support a wide range of the orchestra's work.

This generous support enables us to present exceptional performances, nurture emerging talent, and deliver transformational education and community programmes. Their investment in our work helps us to reach thousands of people of all ages across Scotland and beyond through our music.

We are grateful for this invaluable support and the strong relationships we have with many charitable trusts and foundations, whose commitment helps ensure that we can continue to inspire people through music.
