Successes to Date

During the past five years, over 300 young people have taken part in the programs - 93 Scholars and 20 Fellows in 2012. The ambition? To grow these numbers to 150 and 30 respectively each year by 2014, providing access to even more young people.

It is thanks to the generous donations of individuals to Friends of Saltire that this has been possible.
