We'd also like to remind bands that we *won't* be posting 'bands waiting' updates on this twitter feed for each contest this year. These will all be hosted on this webpage: saddleworthwhitfriday.co.uk/…

Our fundraising comes from our Duck Race and our Free Programme, where people generously Sponsor a Band or a prize. We don’t do house to house collections. We need more funds as costs are ever increasing. Could you support us in a small way please? paypal.com/donate/?hosted_bu…
