About this cause

Stannary Brass Band is an organisation that gives opportunities for people of any age or ability to join and enjoy music. Learners have access to free loan of a brass instrument, sheet music and group tuition . They are encouraged to progress from training band to the main band or youth band. We aim to not allow affordability to be a barrier to young players. They are supported in their learning by volunteers from the senior band. Young people are also encouraged to conduct a music group and mentor young players. There are currently 19 training band members and 43 main band players. The band's main objective is to promote brass band music and an important function of the band is to play at musical engagements. We play regularly at events in our local area, including charitable fundraising.

How this cause brings people in the community together

Our band provides an activity that family members can enjoy doing together, according to their ability and individual wishes. We entertain the public at concerts, parades, weddings and community events. We co-operate with event organisers and other musicians. We promote co-operation between players to ensure that we can provide a playing band and that tasks are shared.
