We absolutely delighted to announce that Ben Hannaford-Waddington will be joining us for this year's WEBBA Regional Finals!
Ben is a phemonenal young percussionist who has already acheived an incredible amount. He has played with the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, Flowers Band (currently the highest ranked band in the West of England region and one of the top ten in the UK), and locally with Forest of Dean Brass. He performed with the NYO at 2022 Proms in the Royal Albert Hall, as well as at Birmingham Symphony Hall and The Barbican. Speaking about his move to Lydney, Ben said “I feel it’s time to give back and support others. I have had the chance to be supported myself in the past, especially during my time at Forest of Dean Brass and by Paul Berrows especially. I believe this opportunity at Lydney allows me to pay my dues.” The WEBBA Regional Finals will be held at the Riviera International Centre in Torquay on 11th and 12th March.
