Bursary Walk, 3 April 2022
We have set up a Bursary Fund to ensure that no young musician is excluded from The National Youth Brass Band of Great Britain experience due to cost. We hope to provide at least 10 bursaries for young musicians attending our courses in 2023.

Story

I'm walking the distance between the NYBBGB's 2022 courses this year.  Starting on the 9th April (Easter course) I'll be walking the distance from Harrogate Ladies College to Taunton School (summer courses).  I'll be ending on our London concert at the Royal College of Music on Saturday 6th August. It is 426km in total - or 248 miles.

I'm raising funds for the NYBBGB Bursary Fund - to provide means-tested bursaries to young people attending our 2023 course. This will support young musicians to attend the Children's Band and the Youth Band residential courses at Easter at summer 2023. They will receive instrumental tuition from outstanding specialist tutors, be conducted by world leaders in their field, tackle advanced brass band repertoire and make new friends for life.

Please donate to help ensure no young person is excluded from this amazing musical experience due to cost.
