IT DOES not seem much does it? For twenty years work at BHS in Harlow but that is what one Harlow resident is left with as they face the prospect of looking for work.

The member of staff (who did not wish to be named) is not complaining they are just stating a fact.

The store will close for the final time on August 20th.

The cafe has already closed.

Customers are also being given the opportunity to buy store fixtures, including shelving and coat hangers as part of the sale.

All stores of the department store retailer will be closed on August 20 if not before and some have already shut their doors.
