One of the UKs leading holiday park businesses will be helping East Yorkshire Motor Services Band head to the Royal Albert Hall in October.

Haven Holidays through its Blue Dolphin Holiday Park, just along the Yorkshire coast from the band at Filey, has agreed to help the North of England representatives by sponsoring and printing the programmes for EYMS organised concerts throughout the rest of the year.

Raising profile

Band Chairman Tony Newiss told 4BR: "Not only is Haven Holidays helping the band to get to London with its generous sponsorship, they are also raising the profile of the band with their professional PR work.

It's an expensive operation running a successful top level band, and we are indebted to Haven Holidays for seeking out this progressive, positive link with us."

Enjoy

Blue Dolphin, based at Gristhorpe Bay, near Filey and Scarborough, on the North Yorkshire coast, offers self-catering and touring and camping facilities, as well as the opportunity to buy a holiday home to enjoy the picturesque cliff top walks and panoramic sea views whenever you choose.

In addition there is a heated outdoor pool, indoor pool with multi-lane waterslide, indoor activities in the SportsDrome, shows with the stars, newly-refurbished big family fun and large indoor soft play area, kids club, crazy golf, kart hire, wall climbing, roller-blading, fishing…and the beaches are a short stroll away.

Contact

It's perfect in fact for brass band families wishing to enjoy a little break away for rehearsals!!!

The telephone number for the park, open until October 31st, is 0333 202 1422,
