When royalty came to Get Sorted...

Get Sorted have been around for a long time and have long been attracting the attention of the high and mighty! Here's an article from the archives, from The Star in 2006, when the Andrew Duke of York got sorted!

"PRINCE Andrew arrived at a business park this morning amid tight security at the start of a whistlestop tour of South Yorkshire.

Looking tanned and wearing a dark suit, the Duke of York, who had flown into Doncaster's Robin Hood airport, was almost 30 minutes late.

He was greeted at Castings Technology International on Waverley business park, Rotherham.

The firm is one of the first to move to the park which will eventually house some of the top UK engineering companies.

The duke was shown CTI's 9 million plant which employs about 100 people and moved to the site in April.

The duke was later due to keep an old promise when he dropped into a music project set up to help jobless youngsters. Prince Andrew visited the Get Sorted project in in Westgate, Rotherham five years ago and promised to come back next time he was in the area.

He was to have lunch at Sheffield Town Hall and visit the Winter Garden and Millennium Square en route to his last stop in St Paul's Place."
