Roberts Bakery Band to Become Witton Albion Band

PRESS RELEASE

Since late 2025, Roberts Bakery Band has been rehearsing at the U Lock It Stadium, following its relocation from the Roberts Bakery premises due to a business restructuring. Witton Albion Football Club has been incredibly generous and is fully aligned with the band's commitment to making a positive impact in the local community of Northwich and its surrounding parishes. This alignment, coupled with the club's generous provision of a rehearsal space and storage for the band's sizeable library and instruments, has led to the decision to work more closely with the club going forward and adopt its name. Roberts Bakery Band will now be known as Witton Albion Band.

The band's final performance as Roberts Bakery Band took place on 1st March, where it competed in the Northwest Regional Contest. The band achieved a very credible 4th place in the First Section, leaving it at the top of the First Section in the North West on points heading into next year.

It will take some time to fully rebrand the band and its online presence, but work on this will commence immediately.

The band would like to express its heartfelt thanks to the Roberts Family for 46 years of fantastic support, without which the band would not be where it is today.

The band looks forward to fulfilling a full concert and contest schedule as the Witton Albion Band, and even more so, to its partnership with Witton Albion Football Club.
