A national company has "showed its commitment" to the local area following a refurbishment of its Fenland store.

Currys in Wisbech celebrated its new look with a ribbon cutting ceremony attended by representative of The Ferry Project homelessness charity.

During the refit, the shop remained open to the public with limited stock on shelves and availability.

The store has been re-planned, boasts more stock, a gaming area and has a new team.

Thomas Marshall, general manager, said: "It's very positive that a company such as Currys has invested in the local area for the long term.

"With the new management now in place, we see this as a new beginning for the store.

"We hope to welcome many customers, both new and existing, through our doors now that we have had this new investment into the store."

Talking about the reopening earlier this month, he added: "Despite the rain we have had a good morning, and we were not going to let the weather dampen our moods."
