A total 300 stores from the high street pharmacist are set to be axed over the next 12 months
A raft of Boots store closures starts tomorrow in what is a sign of troubled times on the high street. The chain has joined a number of others in shutting down branches around the country and has admitted around 300 will go over the next year or so.
The first to close are two in Wakefield on October 6 and 7 followed by a number of others. Boots said there are no proposed redundancies despite the plan, with plans to redeploy affected workers. Campaigner Daniel Husseini told Surrey Live: “People were talking about how vital it is and the added pressure that would be on the other stores.” In a statement following the announcement that Farncombe’s location would remain open, Boots said: “Feedback from our local communities and patients is very important, and we will always listen.
In Coventry, a campaign to save the pharmacy from closure has received “overwhelming support”. And in Eastmoor, the community has signed a petition to keep their branch open prior to closure later this week.
