We have adopted four key priorities for our lottery strategy 2004 - 2009: making the arts available to those who have had few or no opportunities to appreciate them increasing the numbers and broadening the range of people enjoying and taking part in the arts increasing arts activity for and by children and young people making sure there is a fair geographic spread of buildings, facilities and activities across Scotland.
