B&M High Wycombe will be officially opened by Wycombe Homeless Connection next week.

Staff at the new High Street store were asked to nominate a charity they think deserves some VIP treatment for the work they do for the community.

They chose Wycombe Homeless Connection, who will take centre stage and officially unveil the new B&M store on Wednesday, March 17, at 9am.

Wycombe Homeless Connection supports those who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless with a range of services.

As well as opening the new shop, the charity will also receive £250 of B&M vouchers.

The store manager said: “Wycombe Homeless Connection really stood out for us so we wanted to give them some VIP treatment as a thank you for all the hard work that they have done, especially during the pandemic.

"We hope that our donation can help them to continue the great work.”

He added: “Our colleagues have been working really hard to get the store ready for opening day, we can’t wait to get the doors open next week and show customers their brand new B&M store.”

Thirty-five jobs have been created with the opening of the new bargain store.
