New superstore opening in Speke in first for Liverpool
The superstore is the first of its kind in the city.
Speke will today (November 18) welcome Cancer Research UK’s latest superstore.
The large store - which at 6,755 square feet is more than twice the size of a normal Cancer Research UK shop - is the second of its kind in Merseyside and the first in Liverpool, following the success of the charity’s superstore in Southport.
Located at Speke Retail Park on Penketh Drive, the store will launch at 10.30am today and will sell electrical items, clothing and soft furnishings, gifts and women’s, men’s and children’s wear - with profits going to fund research.
The Cancer Research UK Speke superstore manager said: “We look forward to welcoming shoppers and hope the people of Speke will support our new superstore so that we can continue to fund the very best scientists.
“We’re working towards a world where we can all live longer, better lives, free from the fear of cancer. Almost one in two of us will get cancer in our lifetime, but together we can beat it.”
The new Speke superstore will be open Monday to Saturday, 9.00am until 7.00pm, and Sundays from 10.30am-4.30pm.
