A Shropshire mayor has spoken of the financial uncertainty the loss of a major high street chain will have on staff and their families.

It comes following the announcement that all Wilko shops will close by early October, with 9,100 people – shop, warehouse and support centre workers – set to lose their jobs; although a deal has been struck forMayor of Market Drayton, Roy Aldcroft, has spoken of his regret over the loss of the store in the market town, which sits in a prominent place on Frogmore Road, near to the Festival Drayton Centre.

Mayor Aldcroft said:"What a blow to hear the last-minute failure of negotiations to save this well-loved local store. "For customers, Wilko was one of the few multi-item stores in the town centre for good quality goods at reasonable prices. For those without transport, this was a particular advantage.

Poundland owner Pepco has agreed to buy up to 71 Wilko stores following the collapse of the high street chain.
