Description

It was over 60 years ago that the Lostock Hall Memorial Band was formed, although things were a little different back in those days. In 1948, the drive and dedication of local businessman Bert Dearden brought about the forming of the "Four Lane Ends Band". Since then, the band has developed into a respected local band whose image has been synonymous with the development of young players.

Description

Just a few minutes out of the Southport centre in Churchtown is Southport's Botanic Gardens.

Originally opened in 1874, these Victorian gardens are bursting with floral splendour and colourful displays.

Winding through the park is the garden’s lake and a multitude of pathways.

There is an aviary, gift shop and café too, so there’s plenty to see and explore.

Concerts take place on the band lawn.
