Imps amnesty for returnees

If you find an unfamiliar something in the back of a wardrobe or under the stairs when looking for the Xmas decorations this year — it may well belong to Yorkshire Imperial Band

  If they are not yours, then they may belong to Yorkshire Imps

The Yorkshire Imperial Band has announced a festive amnesty for returned property that belongs to them.

Gratitude

A spokesperson told 4BR: "We've noticed a few uniforms missing, and we're sure there's a few instruments and accessories floating around too.

So, if you are looking for the Christmas decorations in a wardrobe or under the stairs and find one of our uniforms or an instrument or a mute or two, please get in touch and we would welcome them back with gratitude."

Please send an email to enquiries@yorkshireimps.co.uk to organise the return or collection.
