We are incredibly grateful to the various individuals, trusts and foundations, organisations and partners who have supported the National Opera Studio and kept us at the forefront of opera training for over 45 years. In particular, we would like to acknowledge the significant contribution made by Arts Council England and our partner companies: English National Opera, Glyndebourne, Opera North, Royal Opera House, Scottish Opera and Welsh National Opera.

We would also like to specially thank the trustees of the Nicholas John Trust for their generous support over many years.
