The band has enjoyed its summer season with concerts, including the ‘Fair on the Yare’ at Claxton, the Nicholas Everitt Park and ‘our own’  ‘Born Free’ concert in conjunction with Chet Valley Ministries at All Saints Church in Loddon.

We were very pleased with the turnout in Loddon and the band played well, especially our soloists.
