Imps announce returns policy

If you have a bit of Yorkshire Imps property then can you get it back to them...

Yorkshire Imperial
 

The Yorkshire Imperial Urquhart Travel Band is hoping that a rummage through dusty wardrobes, old suit carriers, car boots and even the dark recesses under the stairs will result in the return of some of their prized stage jacket uniforms, music and even instruments!

Return

A spokesperson told 4BR: "Sadly over the years, a significant number of our jackets have not been returned along with music and even a few instruments.

With important contests and events to come, we are asking that if anyone has one of our uniforms, music of instruments in their possession, could they please return them.

We are not interested in recriminations — just our thanks. We would simply like to get any gear back that's out there."
