Joining a select number of B&Q stores that have re-opened across the country, Watford’s is once again welcoming shoppers through its doors.

With extra safety measures in place where shops are open, the DIY chain is trialling social distancing measures and subsequently suspending click and collect.

Stores will be open between 8am and 5pm and cashiers will only be accepting card and contactless payments to minimise the risk of viral transmission.

A B&Q spokesperson said: “As an essential retailer, we’ve watched other essential retailers support social distancing in their stores and are now in a position to follow best practice and reopen a small number of our stores as a trial, while keeping our colleagues and customers safe.”
