Bagpipe Loan Application Form

Your organisation must be delivering, or plan to deliver, tuition in state school/s to be eligible to borrow bagpipes. Your organisation can borrow bagpipes for up to three years, giving you a window of time during which to acquire your own set of pipes for on-going loan to your players. We will provide pipes to your organisation, up to the total number agreed and as your players require them, and will recall all the loaned pipes on one date that is three years after the first instrument was dispatched to your organisation.
