Proud

A spokesperson told 4BR: “The partnership not only offers financial support to the band, but allows us to proudly to carry the Unite the Union name on our travels.

The band will continue to perform at events organised by Unite, lead parades and play a gala concert in Durham the night before the world famous Miners Gala in July.

This is wonderful news and we are looking forward to the continued support from Unite the Union over the next three years.”
