A very pleasant visit to Wetherby to hear the splendid Elland Silver Band and see how the bandstand volunteers do things over there.

It was a pleasure to chat with Rob Gray from the Wetherby Riverside Bandstand Trust.

The Wetherby Bandstand has quite a story. It was built in 2000 by volunteers and financed by public subscription. In the 26 years since then the dedicated team that run it have built up their programme to the point where this year they are hosting 33 concerts. Each concert is sponsored by a local business.

Congratulations to Rob and his collaborators on this fantastic achievement 👏

Dear friends of the bandstand and people of Todmorden,

Correction! The meeting is Monday 11th May, not July!

We are having a volunteers' meeting on Monday 11th May at 17:30 at the Honest John's side room. If you are interested in volunteering with us to put on and manage events, to help us with fundraising and/or to steward on events, please come along to meet the Bandstand Group committee and find out how you can help. If you're thinking of coming please send us a message so we have an idea of likely numbers.

We hope to see you there!

In October we had the pleasure of showing some local young people around Todmorden Bandstand so they could get a better idea of the work that is going into restoring our heritage building.

A great opportunity for the students to climb the scaffolding and get up close to the roof and the carved detailing!

Some of the students had been involved in a previous day out with the architects, so they have been able to follow the build process from the beginning, and see it now in action.

Big thank you to Rosslee Construction and Buttress Architects for taking time out to explain the renovations, and to Ms Shirt and Mrs Sutcliffe at Todmorden High School for making the visit happen!

The Bandstand is being renovated as part of the Todmorden Town Deal projects, with invaluable financial support from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
