Stop the closure of Marks and Spencer in Poole

Marks and Spencer in Poole, the only food store in the Dolphin Centre, is due to close in January 2022. For many of the elderly population of Poole, Marks is not only essential but a life line. It is a vital link to outside world as they get a route one bus, get their shopping then go for a coffee - never more so than after lockdown. Many do not have a computer - they have become the forgotten generation in the world of commerce

We need to support our elderly generation - Marks and Spencer is accessible for many, caters food wise, for example, smaller portions, a good selection of convenience food and clothes. It’s a lifeline, a daily outing, a reason to go out.
