Uniformity at Stocksbridge

There is a uniform amnesty at Stocksbridge Band — so hunt the old uniforms out and get them returned...

Stocksbridge
 

Stocksbridge Band have declared a Uniform 'Amnesty' after they found that their existing stock was failing to be replenished after contests and concerts.

Missing a number

Band spokesperson Edward Knowles told 4BR: "We're missing a fair number of concert and marching uniforms, and are desperate to get them back!"

The band does understand that occasionally, people, deps and ex-members end up with a uniform they forgot to give back.

So if you happen to have a strange uniform in the back of a wardrobe, car boot or your own bandroom, get it returnedStocksbridge Band

Buy a drink

Edward added: "We'd gladly buy you a drink if people could have a look and bring any back you may have. Please help us with this — they're extremely expensive to replace and the band doesn't have any financial support."

Get it returned

So if you happen to have a strange uniform in the back of a wardrobe, car boot or your own bandroom, get it returned.
