GFW has been successful in its bid for funding from Creative Scotland and has received the full amount that was applied for - £25000.

The reason given by Creative Scotland for the success of our funding application is an acknowledgment of our...

... strong track record of enabling participation with traditional music. This investment is to support the core work of GFW; providing access to traditional music mentoring and tutoring for young people and adults at all levels.

So, in this time of cuts and uncertainty, GFW survives for another year. Lang may wur lum reek.
