Ask your manager if there’s any in the uniform room. Usually there’s loads old sealed uniform and used uniform.
Or
Look on online sites like eBay

Although there isn't supposed to be, there's usually a york in offices where departing colleagues dump their gear (if they don't stick it on eBay). It's how I've got five red cagoules in my personal stock - ought to outlast the company at this rate.
The machine stops.

- check your local office
- visit a bigger office locally (the bigger the better - major city or large DO combined with a mail processing too) and ask there as there is more chance there is a york or two at the end of the dock or in a dark corner full of stale smelling clothing that is doing nothing
- eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/166862108476

Just be careful though (ie do it on a Saturday when all the managers have gone early), they suspended somebody at our place for taking clothing from that york, said it accounted as 'theft'. Unbelievable I know.

As foretold, one just popped up on eBay if you can bring yourself to fork out for it.

Ebay was in my reply as the third option. If they really (really) want one and options one and two don't work, sure buy one if that makes you happy.
