On March 9th 2024 Bugle Silver Band won the 4th section at the West of England Regional Brass Band Championship at Torquay. It was a fantastic acheivement for us and as a result we have qualified for the National Finals at Cheltenham in September 2024! This is an amazing opportunity, especially for the younger members of the band, who have yet to experience the thrill of playing and representing our band on the national stage. However this opportunity is going to cost a lot of money and we are a very small band with very limited funds.

Therefore we have set up this crowd funding page to ask you to help us make it to Cheltenham. We will need to hire a coach for the trip up and back and to transport all of our instruments and we will also need overnight accomodation for at least 30 playing members. We estimate this will cost us around £6000 so we need to raise funds!

So please give what you can, no matter how small, as every single penny will help us acheive our goal of representing Bugle, Cornwall, and the West of England area on the national stage in a compeition we have qualified for for the first time in 6 years.

In return we will provide you with regular updates and you will be able to follow the entire journey on our social media channels and enjoy the experience with us.

Thank you for your interest and donations
