Which supermarkets in Sussex will be open on Monday’s bank holiday for the Queen’s funeral?

Stuart Machin, CEO of M&S, said: “It is right that we make changes to our operational arrangements on the day of the funeral to ensure our colleagues across our stores and distribution network can participate, whilst supporting customers as they show their respects too. That’s why on Monday 19th September we will cease customer delivery services and close M&S-owned stores in the UK for the entire day, with some limited exceptions in London and Windsor, which will close for the duration of the service.”

A spokesperson from the store said all customer deliveries from M&S.com will be paused along with operations at its e-commerce distribution centre from 6am until the evening shift.

Franchise partners in key travel hubs and public service locations, such as hospitals, are likely to remain open, M&S said.

All Aldi stores across the UK will also close on Monday, according to a spokesperson.

If customers have a slot booked on Monday they will be contacted to confirm the cancellation and will need to re-book a slot for another day, according to Tesco.
