Penicuik and District Pipe Band (having originally formed in 1946) reformed in 1984, after a break of some 18 years. The Band embarked on a major fund raising drive at this time, raising money to buy kilts, jackets, glengarry's etc etc and we managed to borrow a set of drums, to get us up and playing. Over the following years we continued, as membership grew, to buy new items of uniform, update instruments and a second hand set of sporrans.

The Band have once again embarked on a major fund raising drive. Over the past 2 years we've raised over £6000.00 to buy a new set of Drums, and we now aim to replace the 30 year old items of uniform and equipment, as well as instruments for our learners as they come through to The Band.

First up is a set of sporrans to replace those second hand ones, and we are having a sponsored walk on Sunday 28 April, where we hope to raise £2500.00 towards this purchase.
