Our Basses are now 25-years old and really need to be replaced but they cost thousands of pounds. We are saving hard to cover the costs but would be really grateful if you would help us on this journey.
About the Band
Bradwell Silver Band is a registered charity and has been in existence since 1901 making it one of the oldest music groups in Milton Keynes and, we believe, the oldest brass band in continuous existence in MK.
The modern day band plays at numerous local events and has featured several times at the Ironbridge festival of brass in Shropshire, and has played at the Royal hospital Chelsea, home to the famous Chelsea Pensioners.
In 2026 we will be celebrating our 125th anniversary. We have plans for new compositions, concerts, tours and massed band events.
The band has a proud history of teaching brass and today anyone who wishes to learn a brass instrument is provided with an instrument and taught free of charge.
Today's development band has a wide range of ages from about 8 years onwards and has numbered as many as 35 members.
