A national retailer has quietly opened its latest store in Salisbury's Old George Mall.

Gift store Menkind has set up in the last week, trading in the former Clinton's Cards unit.

The chain has 56 stores across the UK, with the nearest before now being in Southampton.

Menkind describe themselves as selling 'I'd-really-like-that-for-myself gifts', having set up in 2001.

On their website, they've explained more:

"We aim to offer an all-out fun experience for anyone who shops with us. But, since we began, we’ve grown a lot, expanded our target audience, and even had tech brand RED5 join our ranks.

"Our shops are spread across England, Scotland, and Wales and we also have numerous concessions in places like Hamleys and Selfridges."

There are also still advertisements online for more staff to join the team at the Salisbury branch.
