Elsewhere on our site you may have seen references to brass band contests. You may have wondered what this is all about and what relevance doing well in them (as we have done in recent years) has for us, or indeed yourselves. Most people are familiar with hearing a brass band outdoors on a Summer's day, but if you'd like to know what we get up to for much of the rest of the year, then you’ve come to the right place!
Since 2000, the band has risen from Section 4 to Section 1 of the London & Southern Counties Area grading system and also represented their region at the National Finals. What does this mean and how did it happen?

We were successful last year in our application to become a registered charity. It will be possible,very soon, for anyone to make a donation to the band by downloading a Gift Aid Form and sending it to us. For every donation which we receive we are able to claim an additional 28p in each pound which of course makes every donation more valuable to us. The money we recieve is used towards buying new instruments, new music,uniforms and for the general running of the band.
Watch this space for the Gift Aid Form!! |
