Centre Stage offers uniform and banner help

Centre Stage Uniforms has offered to help bands who have lost deposits through Image is Everything Ltd going into insolvency proceedings.

Centre Stage
 

Following the news that Image is Everything Ltd has entered into the process of Corporate Insolvency, Centre Stage Uniforms has offered to help bands who may have potentially lost deposit payments for uniforms or stand banner orders through dealing with the company.

Help

Managing Director, Martin Gernon: "This is terrible news for the company's workers as well as for potential customers — especially in the run-up to Christmas.

We want to help bands who may have now lost their deposits paid for uniforms or stand banners and we therefore wish to help as best we can with any band that has been affected."

Don't lose a penny

He added: "We will work with them to complete their uniform or banner orders for whatever their outstanding balance was — ensuring that they don't lose a penny of their budgeted outlay and in effect have therefore not lost their deposits.

Any band that has been affected should contact our offices as soon as possible so that we can make the necessary arrangements. If we can help bands at this difficult time, it would be our pleasure to do so."
