In concert and in contest The Co-operative Funeralcare Band has been making music for over ninety years. Over that time, it has proved to be the most successful band in the history of Scottish brass band music. The band has won the Scottish Championships 32 times and, during the 1990's, twice carried back to Scotland the National Championship of Great Britain - the only Scottish band ever to win this prestigious championship. The key aims of the band as a charity are to: (1) Promote public appreciation and understanding of brass band music and to stimulate interest in the art of brass band playing for the benefit of the public generally and especially members of the Co-operative Movement. (2) Promote the education and training of people of all ages, in the playing of brass instruments and their appreciation of brass band music.

The name Chab Dai means “joining hands” in the Khmer language and we've developed local partnerships and competency within the anti-trafficking movement within Cambodia. The organisation is committed to working with diverse stakeholders to abolish all forms of abuse and exploitation. Chab Dai's UK charity promotes best practice through the Global Learning Community project by applying the experience gained from working in Cambodia and undertaking international research. Global Learning Community works with partners to raise the standards of care for vulnerable populations and survivors of trafficking and exploitation. We do this through fostering greater collaboration and knowledge sharing between multi-sector stakeholders as well as building the capacity of anti-trafficking charities through advisory and resourcing support services. Our goal is to learn from one another and to become a more connected and competent global community.
