Following the successful return of Wimborne Rotary’s popular annual series of ‘Jazz at the Allendale’ charity concerts in September this year, the event reverts to its traditional pre[1]spring scheduling on Wednesday, February 9, 2022.

As always, the venue will be the Allendale Community Centre, Hanham Road, Wimborne BH21 1AS. Entertaining the audience once again will be the South Coast’s foremost 17- piece big band, Swing Unlimited Big Band, which will play a broad repertoire of swing, jazz, and contemporary music, from the golden age of swing through to the present day.

Admission is free with tickets available at the doors, which open at 7.00pm, but with audience numbers dependent on Covid rules applying at the time. There will be a retiring collection in aid of Youth Music Wessex and Rotary charities which it is hoped will be generously supported. Organiser of the concert, Rotarian Darryl Reach, said, “Our latest charity jazz concert marks the 10th anniversary of these events. Thanks to the outstanding generosity of our audiences, we have been able to raise more than £15,000 for worthy causes”.
