Help D&M get to Cheltenham

After a 2 year enforced hiatus due to Covid-19 we finally managed to get back on the contest stage, and the band came second playing Spectrum. This has qualified us for the Nationals in Cheltenham. This is where we need your help!

Dalkeith & Monktonhall Brass Band was founded in 1989 by the amalgamation of Dalkeith Burgh Silver Band and Monktonhall Colliery Silver Band following the closures of both pits. The band rehearses Monday & Thursday evening in Prestonpans, with our training band rehearsing on Wednesdays.

Story

It has been a long couple of years off the contest stage for the band. In March 2022 the band took to the contest stage for the first time since March 2020. Drawn to play first playing the set piece Spectrum, the band put on an excellent performance and were awarded second place from a strong field.

Due to this excellent result the band have received an invitation to play in the National Finals in Cheltenham against the very best bands in our section, however it is a huge task to raise the funds in just a few months.

If you feel you can help with our fundraising, please donate - any amount will help us reach our target. Also if you are a UK tax payer please consider ticking the Gift Aid box, as a Charity we can claim an extra 25% at no cost to you.
