THE Band of Her Majesty’s Royal Marines from the Commando Training Centre, Lympstone, are staging a concert in support of the charity Go Commando this summer.

The charity’s campaign, 360 for GC-Because We Care, aims to raise £360,000 to create a new Family and Community Centre near 40 Commando Royal Marines’ base at Norton Fitzwarren.

The concert is at Queen’s Hall, Queen’s College, in Taunton on Friday, July 8, and follows a recent fundraising appearance by Simon Weston, who was badly injured in the Falklands War.

Tickets priced £20 and £25 are available online at bookings.queenscollege.org.uk or phone 01823 340880.
