The Maket Collective was established to inspire women, girls and the wider community to take inspiration and empowerment to advance their own success. As part of the establishment of the Maket Collective, a number of successful women in piping and drumming have been identified as ambassadors.

Today we will hear the stories from our ambassadors on the huge commitment that is being in the highest grade of piping and drumming. Come along to find our more about their journeys.
