Old Possum's Practical Trust
Set up in 1990 by Valerie Eliot and endowed with funds generated from the hugely successful musical Cats, this trust supports causes across the arts. Within their giving they regularly support projects that encourage creativity in children and young people. At Britten Pears Arts, they are supporting our Friday Afternoons programme, which supports non-specialist teachers to lead singing and songwriting in classrooms across the UK.
