I haven't been able to source any over here. Best I have found came from Camirand Magic in Canada. Excellent - I wasn't able to make CMH smooth until I found these.

Here's a link - http://www.camirandmagic.com/ac_024.html

Good luck.

I find Censtretch bands excellent for CMH.

And readily available, too.

The bands that Russ Niedzwiecki sells for his Pinnacle effect work really well. Very stretchy.

I know you asked for places in the UK, but when I ordered these they arrived pretty promptly.

NO 19 bands are the best for CMH.
these can be found in any stationary store.

Most of the magicians I know use No19's, however I use No 33's. Yes they are thicker and it makes it harder to do well, but I find it gives better visibility.

If I were doing Barry Goven’s ring link then I would have to use 19's otherwise it would be too hard to snap the band.
Take Care

You can get No.19 bands in most stationery supply shops in the UK although you may have to buy a box.

Good luck!

Staple's, do Number# 19.

And they are very stretchy in a seal-able back to stop them going "off" or hard.
