“Support from Eilidh’s Trust means we can enable young people with disabilities to make music in their own homes using the most fantastic technology”

“Because of your generous donation, we are now able to employ a drumming instructor, something that has never been offered before in the schools on Lewis and Harris”

“With your money we were able to hire a second room, and we are going to continue with this group. A very big thank you!”

“Your support has helped us continue our annual Argyll Ceilidh Trail Summer Tour, on which young musicians develop their skills playing as a full traditional ceilidh band”

About the charity

Since the tragic loss of fourteen-year-old Eilidh at the Manchester Arena on 22nd May 2017 her family have set out to ensure her legacy of fun, friendship and love of music lives on for others.

The Trust aims to build confidence and team spirit in children and young people by funding creative arts activities, particularly music.
