Bands Urged to Cancel All Activities Following Latest Government Update

Following the latest Government COBRA meeting, bands have been advised to cease all rehearsals, concerts and contests. In a statement made by Brass Bands England in response to new government measures, they state:-

‘The Government has tonight updated its guidance to avoid all non-essential contact. Brass bands are non-essential. BBE now recommends to our members and the wider brass band community that all in person brass band activity is stopped for the foreseeable future. This includes rehearsals, concerts, contests, committee meetings, other group activity and individual lessons.

For more information, please phone 01226 771015 ext 203. We will be running extended opening hours at evenings and weekends to support bands at this time.’
