We were looking forward to our first event of 2020 but it is a good call to cancel. Stay healthy #FlattenTheCurve.

We don't think of celebrating the accomplishments of our members on just one day a year but International Women's Day is a great way to showcase piping is not gender specific and we are proud of our diverse membership. We even have some English in the band too! #IWD2020

The Pipes and Drums of @GordonsSch and @4_scots_CO were fantastic in supporting our graduation. With almost no time to rehearse together their joint performance was flawless. Lovely to see Pte Derby XXXII of @MercianRegiment too - very steady on parade and a crowd pleaser!
