The Annual Band Concert was held at Cleckheaton Town Hall on Sunday 5 October 2014 and as in previous years admission was free.

The Branch was once again delighted to welcome our local band, The West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service Band, the premier military style band in the UK, conducted by their Musical Director, Mr Lee Whitworth ATCL.

The almost capacity audience were entertained with a varied programme of popular and traditional music including some sing-along numbers.

After the interval, the Branch Chairman, Mr Eddie Morton, was presented with a cheque for £400 by local student Katie Wilby and her sister Rebecca. To raise funds for The Legion, Katie and Rebecca recently undertook a sponsored walk around the War Memorials in North Kirklees. This took her from Cleckheaton, to Heckmondwike, Dewsbury, Batley and back to Cleckheaton.

The Chairman expressed his appreciation to Katie and Rebecca for their efforts.
