and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
MenKind reopened its doors on the ground floor between the former Muffin Break and Bias in October, after closing the same unit in mid-January last year.
The gadget shop has signed a new 18-month lease at the shopping centre, according to the owners Evolve Estates. This lease will end in April 2026.

Elsewhere in the Grosvenor Centre, JD will move out of its current location in Abington Street and into the former Next unit, in 2025.
Evolve Estates has also confirmed that Claire’s and Cards Direct have both renewed their tenancies at the centre.
