As with all clubs and associations, the people involve do more than just what the club was formed to do.

This statement is true for Brass Banding. To allow the band to turn out and play in apark there are not just the hours spent rehearsing but there are many different people who organise, carry, document, clean and pay the bills. When you see a brass band out and about playing this summer have a thought for those who have made this possible. While you enjoy a rendition of Y.M.C.A.

Without the dedication of these people brass banding will be another british tradition that will disappear.
