Administered by Creative Scotland, YMI is the main funding programme for youth music projects covering tuition in and out of school. It enabled over 360,00 children and young people in Scotland to access free music tuition last year, and over recent years has distributed around £9m of public funding, 86% of which specifically targeted areas of socio-economic deprivation.
Pulse of the Place is a drumming programme in Edinburgh and Lothian, formed in 2006, serving 10–17 year olds. Today it serves 14 or so schools and it's always been free to access, with no audition process. It delivers after- and out-of-school sessions, as well as taster sessions in schools.
