A NEW health and beauty store at Middlebrook is one step closer to launching.

Superdrug, which is set to open at the retail and leisure park at the beginning of August, has been granted planning permission to put up new signs.

It will be moving in to a unit located between Sports Direct and Specsavers previously occupied by Poundworld.

A spokesman for Superdrug said: “We are delighted to welcome customers to our new store in Bolton as well as our current store located within the town centre.

"Customers will be able to choose from our unique mix of health and beauty which features a wealth of vegan and cruelty-free beauty options, as well as all the biggest brands at amazing prices.

"We will confirm more details of the store closer to the opening day.”
