Help Musicians Bursary Scheme

We are pleased to announce a partnership with Help Musicians UK (HMUK) to offer a limited number of discounted bursary passes for emerging musical and industry talent.

The 50 accreditations will cost less than a third of the full price (£25 instead of £85), with a small number of free passes available for those meeting special criteria. 

Open to anyone not in full-time education, the deadline for applications is Friday 31 March and successful candidates are required to attend a special induction hosted by Help Musicians at the beginning of the event. 

The partnership underpins the charity’s commitment to developing stronger links with the Scottish music industry and comes ahead of plans to have a permanent presence in Scotland later this year.

In addition, HMUK will be taking part in a panel discussion highlighting opportunities and support through the charity as part of a session exploring different funding streams available in the sector. Hosted in partnership with the Scottish Music Industry Association, it also features Vanessa Reed (PRS Foundation), Alan Morrison (Creative Scotland) and Gennaro Castaldo (BPI).
