Offered services
Terry Webster, Grimethorpe's Band Manager informed 4BR that the Band offered their services on local Radio to any organisation which could provide a suitable sized auditorium.
David Hughes the Octagon Manager contacted the Band and this is the earliest suitable date. It is hoped that we can raise over £10,000 on the night to assist the Yorkshire Flood victims. We are hoping that a local Radio or Television celebrity will compere the Concert.
