Kirsty Abbotts, the highly respected principal cornet of the Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band has decided to undertake a very special solo performance in aid of her band.
Skydive
To celebrate 10 years in the end chair, she has decided to undertake a charity skydive, raising funds for the band on the way down so to speak!
Carlton Main continues to prosper at the very top of Championship banding without the aid of sponsorship, so Kirsty decided to give the band a financial boost in by doing something very much out of the ordinary.
Now or never
Kirsty told 4BR: "It’s something I thought about doing a few years ago, but this time I just thought if I don’t book it now, I’ll never do it!"
