The Band play for their own pleasure, and for the enjoyment of others in support of local charities, and organisations. We aim to play for people who could not normally attend events in town community centres or village halls due to age, frailty, or infirmity. At the same time the players seek to further their musical knowledge and enhance and enrich the culture of the local community.
