...and a formal welcome:

"Welcome to the brand new website of the Leicestershire Brass Band Association. Our website may be new, but we are certainly not a new association. Recalling a conversation that I had many years ago with the legendary Mr. Charles Moore who along with Mr. Hedley Batchelor, founded our association, I believe that we were the first association formed in the country. As you will see in the information on this site, we are a very active association too. Although our early days are not well documented, I do know the first association Band Contest was held in 1926 and Richard Warren who is now in his 90th year played with the Croft band at that contest. I would confidently date our formation having been in the very early 1920's. I do hope you enjoy our new website"
