“We’d also like to thank our customers in the local area for their historic support of the Mothercare brand.”

According to store management, stock levels are high as warehouses are cleared, so there is plenty of choice and customers are advised to take advantage of the heavy discounts as soon as possible as some of the most popular ranges may sell out fast.

The website will remain live until further notice and discounts will also be available online as long as the website is live.
