Came across this website on my travels round the internet – Sound sense http://www.soundsense.org/metadot/index.plA good starting point for community musicians, or those looking to engage the services of a community musician.  Plenty of helpful information and useful links. Check out the funding tips fact sheet http://www.soundsense.org/metadot/index.pl?id=23789&isa=Category&op=show

Here are some links for possible sources of funding for Skoogs and Skoog related projects. http://www.youthmusic.org.uk/looking_for_music_funding/Open_programme.html www.hedleyfoundation.org.uk http://www.awardsforall.org.uk/ http://www.scottisharts.org.uk/1/artsinscotland/music/youthmusicinitiative.aspx http://www.adobe.com/aboutadobe/philanthropy/index.html http://www.meaf.org/ I will keep adding to these as I come across things and please feel free to share any tips or sources of funding for Arts and music that you may have.
