Woodhouse Prize and Chapeltown Bands have told 4BR that they have been overwhelmed by the response from around the banding world to the recent news of the death of the popular bandsman David Morris.

Unfortunately, due to limited space at the crematorium for the funeral the bands have asked that if those who attend can bring a stand banner representing their band.

The funeral will be held on Monday 20th November at 1.00pm at City Road Crematorium, Sheffield.
