SHOPPERS desperate for a spending spree will be able to return to their favourite shops on Monday as lockdown restrictions ease in Reading.

Andy Briggs, General Manager at The Oracle, said: “It is great to be able to welcome customers back with a wider offer and I know our brands are looking forward to re-opening their doors next week. Safety remains a priority and the measures we put in place last year will continue, including mandatory face coverings, hand sanitiser stations and enhanced cleaning.”
“We'd like to say thanks to everyone for supporting us. To all those who have kept essential stores and our food takeaway services open, along with The Oracle team and of course our customers. It’s great to see the arrival of some exciting new brands to the mix and we hope that next month, following the government roadmap, our restaurants and leisure facilities will be able to reopen fully too.”
