It's back to work for the twin NASUWT Chester le Street Bands — with National Finals to look forward to.

The twin bands of the NASUWT Chester-le-Street Band organisation returned to practice after their Summer break this week – and eager to start work on their respective National Finals preparation.

London and Cheltenham

The Senior band started work on their test piece ahead of their appearance at the National Finals at the Royal Albert Hall in October, whilst the successful Concert Band started back on their final preparations for the Third Section National Finals in Cheltenham in a couple of week’s time.

This is a mighty honour for the organisation. To get both bands to the National Finals is something everyone is very proud ofBand spokesperson

A spokesperson told 4BR: "This is a mighty honour for the organisation. To get both bands to the National Finals is something everyone is very proud of."

Meanwhile, the next generation of NASUWT players have also started back to work, with the talented youngsters of the Training band getting their lips back in shape after their well earned Summer break.
