South Yorkshire Police Band recently lined up some banding stars to assist in their preparation for the Yorkshire areas.

"To benefit from the expertise of these world class musicians really inspired the band. Great strides were made during the afternoon and the full band rehearsal that followed the sectionals, showed real potential"
