At Loaningdale School Company, we believe that every child and young person deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential, regardless of their background or circumstances.

Through our grant programmes, we support organisations that are working to provide educational, social, and recreational opportunities for young people. Our goal is to help these organisations make a lasting impact on the lives of the next generation.

Here are a few examples of how our grants have made a difference:

Forest Friends: Nurturing a Love of Nature

Forest Friends is a local organisation dedicated to providing young people with opportunities to learn about and appreciate the natural world.

With our support, Forest Friends has been able to offer a year-long programme in forestry and outdoor learning to students at Carluke High School.

This programme has equipped students with valuable skills and knowledge while fostering a deep connection to their local environment.

Carluke United: Supporting Young Athletes

Carluke United is a youth football club that provides opportunities for children to participate in sports and develop important life skills. 

Thanks to our grant, Carluke United was able to purchase new tracksuits for their “2010” team, ensuring that these young athletes have the proper equipment to succeed.

Coalburn Brass Band Family: Promoting Music Education

The Coalburn Brass Band Family is a local music organisation that offers a variety of programmes for young people. Our grant has enabled the band to continue sending its younger members on a valuable summer course, where they can learn from experienced musicians and connect with other young people who share their passion for music.  This support helps to sustain the band for the long term, which in turn, retains within the community, a valuable resource where young people can develop their musical potential. 

Barn Buddies: Providing Therapeutic Riding

Barn Buddies is an organisation that provides equine-assisted learning programmes for school children. 

Our grant has helped Barn Buddies purchase essential equipment, allowing them to expand their services and reach even more children who can benefit from their therapeutic programmes.

The importance of giving back to the younger generation

Over the years, we are so proud of all the local organisations we have been able to help. By investing in the potential of young people, we are helping to build a brighter future for our community. 

Through our case studies, it’s clear to see that our grants have helped organisations to deliver vital programmes and services that promote education, health, and well-being.

We’re excited to start working with more organisations in the future and, together, we can create a world where every young person has the opportunity to thrive.
