The store also boasts its own 11,582sqft garden centre, selling hundreds of plant varieties and garden essentials for green fingered locals.

To celebrate the grand opening of the new Stamford store, B&M store colleagues were asked to nominate a local charity who they think deserves the spotlight for all the hard work they have done in the local community. They chose the team from MindSpace Stamford to take centre stage and officially open the store with a ceremonial ribbon cut.
