Within the Community there is The Skelmanthorpe Band (Yorkshire, 1st Section), The Skelmanthorpe Prospect Band (Yorkshire, 2nd Section), and The Skelmanthorpe Training Band (a Group of fledgling Musicians) supporting around 100 Brass and Percussion Players between the ages of 6 and 86.

With a highly motivated team of Tutors, Volunteers and a successful Training Programme, The Skelmanthorpe Brass Band Community encourages both young people and adults to pick up Brass or Percussion Instruments and learn how to play them.

Formed in 1843, the Skelmanthorpe Band is one of the oldest Brass Bands in the Country.
