With our marching cacophony, our volunteers and supporters started collecting money as we marched, and true to this day every penny collected by the Falmouth Marine Band is donated to support Cornish causes and the local community.
It was then and remains today a bit of fun. Behind all our frivolity is a serious end result which we are proud to have been part of for nearly 35 years!
The Falmouth Marine Band do not support national charities, but try and fill the gap locally, supporting young people and others who may not get any help. The Falmouth Carnival is our primary way of achieving this annually.
