Carina Halliwell joined the Pemberton organisation almost 20 years ago as a youngster hopeful of a chance to play at the band, following in her father's footsteps. After years working up through the organisation, from Youth to B Band and then into the Senior Band, from cornet to flugel, Carina has been a soloist the band has been able to rely on for a number of years.
Carina's commitment to the band has been exemplary, including a spell as band secretary. Her contributions on both the concert and contests stage have been infallible and will leave a gap which will be difficult to fill. Due to professional and personal reasons, Carina thinks it is the right time for a break. We are sad to see her leave, but are eternally grateful to her for the service she has provided to the band in her two decades with the organisation.
From all in the Pemberton Old Wigan organisation, we wish you well and look forward to seeing you in the future.
