Chetham's School of Music

"A Place Where Exceptional is the Norm’, the case study on the successful £36 million new school appeal, was researched and written by Lady Fender; she concludes that “The partnership of Chetham’s and Tarnside was one that shows how professional fundraisers can play a vital role in the intellectual and physical growth of an organisation and its environ. Chetham’s is well on its way to completing the building appeal and, helped by the self analysis and development work associated with mounting the project, becoming a leading international force in the training of precious musical talent. They are helping music to change the world.”

“Tarnside provided us with a professional fundraising service and template which guided us in introducing potential donors and supporters to the exceptional qualities of the staff and students of Chetham’s School.” Paul Lee, Chairman of the Feoffees of Chetham’s School.
