The band has had a busy couple of months over the summer with various engagements and we are now into the preparations for the Bolsover Entertainment Contest.

The summer months also saw  new and returning players join team Unite, and we would like to extend a formal welcome (and welcome back) to them all.

We would like to welcome back Mary Golder and Eleanor Renshaw to the Unite team. Mary joins the band on tenor trombone having spent the last couple of years playing with Skelmenthorpe Band, and having a short break from brass banding to play with different types of ensembles. Eleanor Renshaw returns to the band on tenor horn following a couple of years away from playing. Both Mary and Eleanor came back to the band at the start of the summer  and we are delighted to have them back. Welcome back ladies!!

We would also like to extend a warm welcome to Tonia Sugden who has also joined team Unite over the summer. Tonia has joined our back row cornet team having previously played with Meltham & Meltham Mills Band and Old Silkstone Band. Welcome to the team Tonia!!

The band has vacancies  for soprano cornet and percussion . If you are interested in either of these vacancies, please contact the band by email on: brassband@unitetheunion.org
