Prescription fears as two Boots stores face closure in Wolverhampton
Shopkeepers have said that they worry for the high street and its shoppers as a number of Boots stores face permanent closure.
The worry comes as Boots announced that a number of stores would close nationally to 'consolidate the businesses' with the retailer planning to reduce its total number of shops from 2,200 to 1,900.
The new round of closures comes as two stores in the Wolverhampton area face the axe, with both Castlecroft and Bradmore pharmacies facing closure later this year.
Talking to the Castlecroft store, a spokesperson confirmed that their closure date is set as March 21, with Bradmore Boots saying they can't comment on the exact date.
Now, shopkeepers on Castlecroft High Street have said they worry for the future of their shopping district as the latest closure is "another blow".
