How lovely to see this celebrated - we can't wait to return to Dobcross Band Club next week to be with our fantastic, talented and dedicated young players. A big thank you to all of them and all those being highlighted by I love Oldham today for all they do for our local communities.
What a fantastic summer concert to start off holiday season! A huge well done to all the players who performed at Dobcross Band Club on Friday evening, with superb selections of music from the beginners, training band and youth band. Special congratulations to the wonderful award winners - every player has done so well this year but these four really have gone the extra mile and stand out for their dedication, enthusiasm and kindness to others.![]()

Two of our most favourite things - Wallace and Gromit and brass music - at Stockport Plaza on Sunday! Even better the live score will come from our good friends The WFEL Fairey Band, featuring our very own Musical Director James Atkins. It will be the first ever performance of the score transcribed for brass band and promises to be a treat for all the family. Balcony and circle seats are sold out but there are still a few stalls seats available.
