The Bollington Band recently hosted a concert at their local Methodist Church in aid of East Cheshire Hospice.

Proceeds

Both the organisation’s vibrant senior and B Bands performed a varied programme of music to a sell out audience, with all proceeds from ticket sales, raffle and refreshments going to the Hospice, which undertakes amazing work for those in greatest need in the community.

Close to £2,500 was raised on the night, with members of the East Cheshire Hospice fundraising team on hand to accept the money that will certainly be pout to good use.
