The DVD, entitled “The Road to Perth”, is now on sale (priced £5 per copy), with the money raised going to help fund the band’s trip to the Brass Band Championships of Great Britain in Cheltenham on September 15.

The band qualified for the event by finishing second in their section in Perth, where they also lifted the James Taylor Memorial Trophy and were awarded a cash prize of £100.
