High street giant Boots is set to shut down dozens of stores across the UK in 2024 - including three in Cornwall. 

The previously announced closures came after the brand shared that they aim to close some 300 stores across the country.

Boots is owned by US company Walgreens Boots Alliance, who back in 2023 shared that the closures were aimed at optimising locations and opening hours.

James Kehoem, global chief financial officer at Walgreens previously said: “We will continue to optimise our locations and opening hours and expect to close an additional 300 locations in the UK and 150 locations in the US."

The UK closures of Boots would see stores drop from 2,200 to 1,900.

So far, Boots has closed down more than 20 stores in the UK and more are to follow. 

They include three in Cornwall, although the closing date has only been announced for one of them.

They are Pool, near Redruth, in March 2024; Carlyon Road, St Austell in early 2024; and St Blazey, also in early 2024.
