Good luck at the area contests this weekend everyone! We’re drinking coffee and waiting to go on second 🙂

*** Update!

After a meeting with HCC on Friday, we have agreed an extension to our lease at 10% of the current market rate. So our rent increase will now be from £500pa to £738pa for at least 3 years, rather than from £500pa to £7,385pa.

This is good news and I really believe that we wouldn't have achieved this without the support you have all given to the band - thank you from all of us in the band.

Facebook community, we need your help!

10 years ago we moved into our new bandroom on Tannery Drift in Royston. We fundraised for and built the bandroom, but the land it is on is leased.

Our lease is now up for renewal, and we are being told that we will be charged at the commercial rate - £7,385 per annum instead of our previous £500.

Royston Town Band has been serving Royston's community for 160 years - please sign our online petition so we can continue to do so https://www.change.org/RTBbandroom

We were delighted when Home-Start Royston, Buntingford & South Cambridgeshire was chosen as the Christmas charity for Royston Town Band in 2023.

We are grateful for the band's support in raising funds for us through numerous events held in Royston and nearby villages. We are in awe of the band members' commitment to their craft, especially during such a busy time of the year.

We are delighted to share that Home-Start received £1,000 in donations, and we owe a HUGE thank you to everyone in our local community who donated in support of the band and our charity.

30/12/2023

Well that’s the Christmas season done! On to 2024…

Thank you to everyone who has supported us in 2023 by donating to the band and coming to our concerts. We are very much a band for the community and of the community, and we love being part of everything that goes on in the town.

Thanks also to the band for turning up every week, the committee for giving up their free time to make sure everything happens as it should. An especially big thank you to Steve Earley and Sheila Ball who not only lead the main band and development band so professionally but also do a great deal behind the scenes.

All the best and hope to see you soon 🙂🎄

Ps. Our Christmas funsraiser is still open if you wish to be amazing and make a donation 🙏
