Marks and Spencer has started a consultation with its Redhill staff regarding the potential closure of its store in the Belfry Shopping Centre.

In October 2022, M&S announced it was restructuring its business to focus on its food-only stores as part of a plan to close over 100 sites. 

Manager of The Belfry, Andy Nash, said the Redhill store has been “much loved” by customers for the past 33 years and wished “all of the Redhill M&S staff well during the consultation process and beyond”. 

Last month, Marks and Spencer announced the closure of their Crawley store located in Queensway.
