Visit by West Bromwich MP

We were delighted to welcome MP for West Bromwich, Nicola Richards, to our new retail outlet on Friday 3rd July 2020.

Nicola had a walk around the store, and remarked that it was lovely to see a new shop open in the area. She loved the setting, and was impressed with the look of the new store.

Of course, all Covid and safe distancing measures are in place in store, and Nicola discussed local lockdowns, which does not currently affect the Sandwell and West Bromwich area.

We would like to thank Nicola for attending, and we will extend an invitation when we can hold our official 'opening' ceremony!
