With the finals of the 2026 National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain at London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall less than a week away, Hepworth Band would like to say a really big thank-you to everyone who has supported its National Finals appeal and all of the bands fundraising events.
A special mention to all of the businesses that have so generously supported the band to help us on our way – the Adelphi Group of Companies, DLT Podiatry Supplies, Dixons Milk Ices, Fuel Doctor, Steri-Pod, our friends at The Butchers Arms, Hepworth & Red Lion Inn, Jackson Bridge, and a big thank-you to Turnbridge Autos Ltd. for helping us with the cost of the coach.


Band Manger Yvonne Embury said, “We really do appreciate and value the support from our local community – we couldn’t do it without you!
We’ll be working hard over the coming week with our final preparations for the set work, ‘A Road Less Travelled By’ by composer Philip Sparke. As reigning Yorkshire Champions and fresh from our 6th place finish at the British Open Brass Band Championships, we’re enjoying getting stuck into our next challenge! – Let’s see if together we can do it again for Yorkshire!”
