It is not unusual for Doncaster Concert Band to support and serve the local community. This year the band celebrated their 30th anniversary at The Cast Theatre and all proceeds from the concert were given to the William Appleby Memorial Trust which supports the advancement of music education for young musicians within the Doncaster area.

Many pupils from Waverley, Hexthorpe and Atlas Academies will be joining Woodfields at the start of this exciting new musical adventure.
Musical Director for the band, Will Taylor said: “The pupils of Woodfields are our future players and we would be delighted if they and their families would support the Doncaster Concert Band at our concert this Thursday.”
David Scales, principal at Woodfields Academy said: “We are really looking forward to hearing the Doncaster Concert Band this Thursday. I am confident that the performance will inspire our new students to see just how rewarding and fulfilling playing an instrument can be. I am looking forward to welcoming them and our MISST instruments next term.”
