Peace and harmony for Test Valley

One World Week gains active support from the youngsters of Test Valley Brass

Test Valley
 

The young players from Test Valley Brass Youth Band and the beginner band Frosty’s are doing their bit to try and help achieve a peaceful and sustainable world where everyone gets on works and lives together in harmony.

Passionate

So passionate are some of the band members about this that they have persuaded the adults and the whole Test Valley Brass group to join in with the ‘One World Week’ celebrations in Andover.

The concept of everyone getting on peacefully and pulling together for a sustainable world is a belief which Test Valley Brass strives towards and is extremely happy to promoteLouise Porter

One World Week

Louise Porter told 4BR: "When we heard about the ‘One World Week’ celebrations we just couldn’t resist being involved, and the young youth band members are extremely keen to help wherever possible.

The concept of everyone getting on peacefully and pulling together for a sustainable world is a belief which Test Valley Brass strives towards and is extremely happy to promote."

Wildest dreams

Sebastian Blake of the Andover ‘One World Week’ Team added: "It really is beyond our wildest dreams and to have the young players of the band help in our endeavours is fantastic."
