Synergy contest cancelled

The Powervote 21st Century Synergy Competition has been cancelled.

 

4BR has been informed that the proposed Powervote 21st Century Synergy Brass Band Competition that was due to be held on Saturday July 14th at Buckingham School has been cancelled.

Postpone

Organiser Roy Scott told 4BR: "Due to unforeseen circumstances it has been necessary to postpone the Powervote 21st Century Synergy Brass Band Competition, although it will now be held later in the year. I'm sorry I have had to postpone the event but perhaps this will allow more bands to take part."
