The Band of the Royal Marines is coming to Wiveliscombe for a huge fundraiser concert.

Hosting the Lympstone Band, St Andrew’s Church will reverberate with a mix of traditional and contemporary music on May 18 at 7.30pm.

The Drum Corps' performance showcases their speed and precision honed over years of practice.

Major Ian Davis, director of music, will fulfil his promise of returning after their last sell-out gig.

This follows their role at Queen Elizabeth II's funeral in Windsor.

The audience's resounding "Yes!" was the answer to Davis’s question "Would you like us to come back?"

Proceeds will aid SSAFA, a charity supporting serving and ex-service personnel experiencing hard times.

Tickets, priced £15, are available at TicketSource Royal Marines or by calling 0333 666 3366.
