The Kibworth Band our proud to have two youth bands as part of our organisation. To coincide with The Kibworth Band celebrating 100 years of music making, and looking forward to the future, Ted Smith, Band Manager at the time, set about raising funds to form a new youth group to maintain the existence of the Kibworth Band. This formed Kibworth Centenary Youth.
Children in all of our bands are offered free instruments in order to learn and develop on as members of the Kibworth Centenary Youth Bands.
As part of our commitment to encouraging the development of children the most gifted children are offered places on our apprenticeship programme with the senior band.
