In the charity's own words
Audley Brass Band performs on a regularly basis at either our own concerts or as a contributor to other concerts staged by charities, schools, village associations, churches, etc. We rehearse twice a week to improve the quality of the Band. We have a training band which practices once a week and when members of this band are ready to move to the main band, Audley Brass, this is encouraged.
