“There has been a very small number of occasions recently where we have had to take the difficult decision to temporarily close our store at Long Sutton, typically for no more than one hour, due to team member shortages or lack of pharmacist availability.

“Our teams are working very hard to keep stores open, minimise disruption for customers and provide the best possible service.

“We apologise to customers who have been affected and thank them for bearing with us and being kind to our team members.”
