\n The branch of TG Jones, formerly WH Smith, in Broadway, Didcot, is part of the company’s massive restructuring which will see its High Street stores drastically cut back.\n<\/p>\n
\n The Didcot shop is just one of 150 TG Jones stores set to close in the plan, which could result in the loss of hundreds of jobs.\n<\/p>\n
\n A closing down sale has now begun at the shop, set to continue until its final day trading on January 9, 2027.\n<\/p>\n
\n A spokesperson for TG Jones said: “As we work to secure the long-term future of TG Jones, we have confirmed that our Didcot shop will close.\n<\/p>\n
\n “We know this will be disappointing news for our colleagues, customers, and the local community.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Our focus now is on supporting those affected and continuing to serve customers throughout the closure period.\n<\/p>\n
\n “We would like to thank all of our colleagues for their commitment and the contribution they have made to TG Jones.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The Post Office premises which operates from the TG Jones store will also be lost with the closure, but Post Office previously said that interest has already been expressed for a replacement store to minimise disruption to customers.\n<\/p>\n
\n After being bought by Modella in June last year in a rescue deal that saved the historic stationery brand from collapse, all 450 stores WH Smith stores were rebranded TG Jones.\n<\/p>\n
\n The only shops to continue bearing the WH Smith brand are those in airports and train stations.\n<\/p>\n
\n A major restructuring plan was approved by the High Court in July, and some 19 stores have shut in September.\n<\/p>\n
