“It is wonderful that Jardine Funeral Directors has supported D-Lux Festival for a third consecutive year, once again receiving funding support from our Culture & Business Fund Scotland. Their creative partnership not only brings back the unique D-Lux Festival for the people of Dumfries to enjoy but also makes a significant contribution to the creative regeneration of the local area. This is an excellent example of the many benefits that come from businesses and cultural organisations forming lasting relationships and working together to create amazing cultural projects in their local communities.
