If you answer yes to one or more of these questions then please get in touch or come down to one of our practices as we would be very please to hear from you. We practice twice a week from 7:00 til' 10:00 at the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service Training Headquarters in Manchester. We are a flexible organisation and can organise lifts to band practices twice a week from various locations around the region (Warrington, Luverpool, Chester, Crewe, North/South Manchester, Preston and many more).

Please give us a chance to show you how much fun it is to compete at the Major events and see how much you can improve your standards in a very short time frame. As a band our aim it to get to Grade 2 within the next three years, to do this we need new blood to strenghten our already excellent team, that could be YOU!!

Don't hesitate get in touch now.

Like I said we WILL honour existing band committments and will not let bands fold because of our increasing numbers. If your band is not competing then you have nothing to lose.

WARNING - some people will veiw this as a method of poaching, I view it as active recruitment and development. If you are asked to join a competing band see it as a complement and not as a threat. Let me put it this way if you or your son/daughter was playing with Salford Rovers etc. and was approached by a football league side where you/he/she could improve your/their standard...........would you stop them because 'our family have always played for Salford........' would you ever!

Over and out, get in touch now don't delay as we will be training people for competing in the 2009 season ASAP!
