Cohedra System 'Spectacular' at RAF Brize Norton
Leading independent music distributor, John Hornby Skewes & Co. Ltd. was pleased to be able to loan RAF Brize Norton a Cohedra line array PA system for the recently-held, first-ever 'BrizeFest' music festival at Brize Norton, an event arranged specially for family and friends of those who work on the RAF station.
The event, held at RAF's famous Brize Norton location, coincided with the force's Families Day. A good response to the festival line-up saw over 5000 people attending on the day to demonstrate support for both troops and the community. Brizefest also helped raise money for Help for Heroes, a charity for personnel who have received devastating injuries on operations, and the Helen and Douglas House hospices which specialise in tending to the care of terminally ill children. "Although we have enjoyed a classical concert with fireworks and picnics in the summer months on the Station since 2002, this was the first year that we have held BrizeFest in this format," explained former Station Commander, Group Captain Malcolm Brecht, who concluded: "What a spectacular event it turned out to be, thanks to the kindness of JHS for the loan of the PA system. The equipment made it possible to have an outdoor event with spectacular sound quality and made for a most professional concert."
