Loughborough based, we are three friendly community wind bands welcoming players of all ages and abilities.
In May our Concert Band raised almost £1,500 for the Nottinghamshire branch of the Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA). This charity benefits the lives of disabled children by providing therapy, fitness, skills development and opportunities for achievement through pony riding. Thanks to everyone who supported the Association. Find out what you could do as a volunteer at https://www.nottinghamrda.org.uk/home.html
