Band Supplies teams up to offer 1 year instrument insurance cover

Band Supplies to provide 1 year insurance cover for new instruments thanks to link to Brass Band Insurance Services.

Instruments
  New instruments from Band Supplies now come with 1 year free insurance

Band Supplies is now offering a one year free insurance policy with Brass Band Insurance Services with every new instrument purchased.

New offer

The offer is available at both the Leeds and Glasgow stores, online via the website and all trade stands.

All BBIS policies offer much wider cover than the traditional home insurance and all policies are issued on behalf of Aviva Insurance, guaranteeing maximum security.

Band Supplies recognise that it is now harder than ever for musicians to replace their instruments after damage or loss and that is why we have arranged this exclusive one year free insurance policy with Brass Band Insurance ServicesBand Supplies
