All awardees are nominated by organisations or the public and are entered into the Scottish Traditional Music Hall of Fame.
For this category we are looking for individuals that maybe not be in the limelight however they teach music, organise classes, run clubs and festivals, publish music or magazines and generally make life better for people learning traditional music. If you know someone who works tirelessly for the music community you can nominate them here.
