The full Concordes' picture gallery can be found here, thanks to Picasa Web Albums - latest updates include photos of the 2008 National Wheelchair Dance Festival in Blackpool held last November. You can also check out our promotional YouTube video here. It's a little bit out-dated, and we hope to produce new videos for you soon!

: Concordes in the Media : : BBC One's "ONE Life - Dancing on Wheels" : Broadcast on 17th April 2007, this episode of the "ONE Life" series followed the Concordes, and the Scottish Inverclyders team, to the National Wheelchair Dance Festival held in Blackpool in November 2006. For an insight into wheelchair dancing, the 45 minute programme is recommended viewing. You can watch a clip from the programme on the director's website here. We're pleased to say that we won a great deal of gold medals in Blackpool, beating arch-rival Cornish team, The Choughs, for the first time in countless years! Our thanks go to producer Kate Foster for some of the photos (individually credited in our gallery), and also to a number of TV listings who wrote up short features about the programme. : Evening Post Article : On the 3rd August 2007, the Bristol Evening Post very kindly published a story about the Concordes, in a bid to attract new members. The story focuses on our recent recruit, Holly, who despite being our youngest member in some years, has taken to the dancing like a duck to water. You can read the story here - reproduced with the permission of reporter Martin Booth and the Bristol Evening Post. : The Concordes Street Team : You'll also find mention of the Concorde Wheelchair Dancers on posters, leaflets and stickers distributed on fund-raiser days, and displayed in places like hospitals, GP surgeries, supermarkets, shopping malls, and so on. Our thanks go out to the helpful souls who've downloaded our poster or leaflet and distributed them. If you can help spread the word of UK wheelchair dancing in any way, please download and print our promotional materials and distribute where possible. If you have a website relevant to either wheelchair dancing or wheelchair leisure in general, email Rob and we can arrange to exchange links.
