SOME special guests attended the opening of the new B&M Yeading store on the former Comet site in Willow Tree Lane Retail Park on Saturday.

The store was officially opened by the Mayor of Hillingdon, Cllr Catherine Dann, and customers were able to enjoy face painting and giveaways from Haribo, as well as appearances from Elsa the Snow Queen and Princess Anna.

Ben Gough, store manager, said: “We’re really proud to be creating 65 jobs this year and playing our part in the local community.”
