The Band of the Brigade of Gurkhas and pipers of 1st Battalion The Royal Gurkha Rifles recently presented another spectacular musical entertainment to a packed audience at Darlington's Dolphin Centre.

The primary purpose of the evening was to raise funds in aid of The Gurkha Welfare Trust.
All proceeds from the concert, expected to raise over £10,000 will be put to good use to benefit the oldest and most frail Gurkha ex-Servicemen and their widows in Nepal.
