imposed restrictions

Prior to COVID-19 both brands were in LFL growth proving ongoing relevance of our offering and net bank debt had reduced

Taken advantage of lockdown periods to both enhance and drive the offering of our two core brands and develop two new brands

Doing the right thing for all stakeholders - sustainability, wellbeing and diversity & inclusion

Strong balance sheet with £4.6m net cash as at 15 November 2021 & well positioned to capitalise on a transformed marketplace
