Chippenham
Chippenham is the largest of this thriving linked partnership and a large, high-performing business situated within a prominent open-air retail precinct. Recently rebranded in 2025, the store offers an impressive clinical setup with seven optical test rooms, delivering 6–7 optical clinics each day alongside seven hearcare clinics per week. Equipped with two Nideks, OCTs and providing enhanced clinical services including CUES and cataract post-operative pathways, the store has developed strong referral relationships with New Medica and local hospital providers. Demand remains healthy while maintaining excellent accessibility, with appointment waiting times currently around three days.
Devizes
Devizes is an established medium-sized high street store that was also refreshed through a rebrand in 2025. The store benefits from three optical test rooms and delivers 2–3 optical clinics daily, supported by two hearcare clinics each week. Dedicated partner parking provides added convenience, while the store continues to maintain strong patient access with waiting times of approximately three days.
Melksham
Melksham is a large, modern store that relocated to new premises in 2024 and occupies a prominent main street location, benefiting from ongoing housing growth and investment within the local area. The store features five optical test rooms, delivering 3–4 clinics daily, alongside a dual hearcare room that supports up to ten hearcare clinics per week. An on-site glazing facility enhances service capability, while dedicated partner parking and next-day appointment availability demonstrate the store's commitment to both colleague and customer convenience.
