Summary at a Glance

The Irish Clothing Company said its last remaining store in Loughborough will be closing in the summer, with 11 jobs set to be lost.

Notable closures include 33 Homebase stores which are all set to shut this month after the company went into administration in November and four WHSmith shops that closed in the first half of February.

A family-run clothing company has announced it will permanently shut its doors after trading in Leicestershire for 115 years.

This year has not gotten off to a good start either, with brands such as Pandora, Swarovski, Bershka, Urban Outfitters and River Island all announcing plans to close their flagship stores on Oxford Street, along with a host of others.

Last year was one of the worst ever recorded for the British high street, with over 13,000 store closures from big brands.
