'The word Community is no happy coincidence'.
We are proud that our musical groups include people of various ages, skills and talents, enabling everyone to have the opportunity to explore a new interest or renew an old hobby.'
'The one thing that unites us more than anything else, is our love of music.'​

'CARLETON COMMUNITY BAND' was formed in 1997 by Terry Roberts and a group of enthusiastic parents with children at Stanah Primary School in Thornton, and was formerly known as STANAH CONCERT BAND. In September 2010 the Band relocated to Carleton to tie in with the formation of the Choir and changed it's name to CARLETON COMMUNITY BAND. We have continued to grow from strength to strength, performing at many private functions as well as public performances, both on our own and jointly with the Choir.
