New stretch target
Exceeding our targets will allow us to stage bigger shows in bigger venues, taking on more risk and reaching bigger audiences.
Firstly thank you for your enormous support this far, which has helped us get through 2020/21. We have been able to continue to employ our brilliant Musical Director, as well as investing in instruments, library, and ongoing overheads.
We have two main aims as a band:
1. To bring joy to the world through music
2. To provide a safe and enjoyable place to learn and grow
Our goals for 2022 are: Get a full diary of really entertaining gigs; Develop a wider following online and at concerts; Return to being financially self-sustaining; Fill all seats in Senior and Youth Band (we're not far off!).
How can you help? Our pledges this year are all about participation and community. Wear our cufflinks to a concert... send a live-video carol message to a loved one... conduct the band!! Or book some VIP seats and enjoy our Xmas Festival on 19 Dec. You can also donate, or simply send us a request or an idea. And we'd love to hear your views, hopes, wishes and ideas. Next year we will be investing in new music as well as technology to help us engage with our audiences in a bold and beautiful variety of settings.
Here's an example of a video pledge we created last year. Who could you send one to?
Thank you for all your support! Best wishes and a very merry festive season from all of us here.
