Members of the Dronfield Genquip Band have been pushing themselves not only musically but physically of late as they prepare to take part in the gruelling 'Dronfield 10k Run' this Sunday (7th April).

Musical Director Damian Wileman will be joined players Cathy, Gemma, Maria and Rosie, all of whom are looking to make it to the finish line in one piece but more importantly, raise some money for the band's chosen charity for 2019, Macmillan Cancer Support.

Fast or slow

Damien told 4BR: "It's been tough getting back into the habit of running, particularly with a busy Christmas schedule and preparing for the Butlins and Yorkshire Area contests.

However, it promises to be a great day out and no matter how fast or slow we end up being, we will be delighted to have been able to raise some money for a charity that is close to all of our hearts."

The 10k run kick starts the first of a number of fundraising events that will take place this year.
