Three young Manx musicians have had their hardwork and practice rewarded by obtaining seats in the National Children's Brass Band of Great Britain.
Charlotte Underwood, Ellen Quane and Illiam Quane are all from Ramsey Town Band.
Charlotte will play at first trombone, Ellen first tenor horn and Illiam principal cornet for the second year in a row.
Ramsey Town Band musical director Robert Quane says the achievement is the culmination of a huge amount of dedication:
