Customers can also buy pollinator friendly seeds, known for providing much-needed food and habitats for wildlife. Nest boxes have been installed in a bid to boost biodiversity and are available to purchase in-store.

Grant Anderson, Homebase Retail Director, comments: “We’re proud to be opening another new store. Even better, we’re returning to a local community that we know well, and our fantastic team is ready to help customers with home and garden projects big or small.

“Customers will be surprised by how different this store is – there’s inspiration wherever you look. We’ve introduced creative room sets and QR codes to bring our products to life and, most importantly, made it easier to shop.”
