The Boots UK team have been working hard to get all of the finishing touches in place as they open their brand new beauty destination-store in Handforth Dean Retail Park.

The new store was officially opened on Wednesday by June Curbishley, who has been a valued part of the local community for over 55 years, having started her career with Boots in 1962 in the Knutsford store as a Dispenser.
