The Guildhall School of Music & Drama is one of Europe's
leading conservatoires, offering musicians, actors, stage managers and
theatre technicians an inspiring environment in which to develop as
artists and professionals.
The School first opened its doors on 27 September 1880 to 62 part-time students in a disused warehouse in the City of London.
Today it is situated in the heart of one of Britain's most important
arts venues at the Barbican and has over 800 full-time music and drama
students, with a growing international reputation for its teaching and
research. More than a third of the School's students are currently from
outside the UK and represent over 40 nationalities.
Guildhall School is delighted to pledge its commitment to Fairtrade
through its Chaplaincy and through the School Café, managed by Holroyd
Howe.
The Chaplaincy uses fairly traded goods at social events and promotes
Fairtrade by hosting a one-day stall during Fairtrade Fortnight.
The Cafe sells as many fairly traded products as possible, both in the
café bar and vending machines and has committed to serving Fairtrade
foods at all internal meetings and hospitality events.
