Each year, as part of the Association’s contribution to the banding movement, support is offered to selected projects.  Last year’s focus was on Brass Band Aid, where the Association provided a significant donation to the charity and supported its ongoing growth with a prize draw and allocated space at each of its tradeshows.  This year a number of smaller projects will benefit from the Association’s assistance.

Brighouse Hymn Tune and March Contest

The first project supported by the Association was the Brighouse Hymn Tune and March Contest which was recently organised by Kirklees Music in their hometown of Brighouse.  To help promote youth and music, the members of the Association of Band Traders agreed to sponsor the youth section of the competition and donate financial gifts in recognition of the hard work involved in bringing a youth band to competition standard.

Brass Band Aid - 2006/07
The Association of Brass Band Traders have been helping raise funds for Brass Band Aid and World Vision.

In addition to offering an important service for band lovers at brass band contests through their trade-stands, the Association of Band Traders is also showing itself to be fully aware of issues from a wider field.

2006 has seen the Association adopt Brass Band Aid as one of their chosen charities and at the Butlins Mineworkers Brass Band Festival they raised £750 for the charity through a special prize draw.  The winner, Mr R Whitehead will enjoy a complimentary Gold Level apartment at next year's event!
