Home and garden retailer Robert Dyas will celebrate its first birthday in Bracknell from Saturday, August 24.

Customers can enjoy a glass of fizz in store to toast the occasion, while children can get into the birthday spirit with free sweets and balloons.

The dog-friendly retailer will also be providing dog treats to any visiting canines.

For those wishing to partake in the celebrations, the store is located in the Lexicon Centre at 44 Braccan Walk next to Waterstones.

Last year the store opened memorably with live steel drum music, a live wind instrument quartet and a magician to delight children.

Robert Dyas has everything you need for your home and garden, from kitchen electricals and cleaning appliances to gardening equipment, DIY tools and ironmongery.

With 93 stores spread across the South of England, in recent years, Robert Dyas has also significantly grown its online presence and now has an extensive online offering.

Customers can also make use of the various services in-store: They can transfer money virtually anywhere in the world with Western Union, get personalised house number plates created, and send packages and documents worldwide from the DHL Service Point at their Bracknell store or have new keys cut.

Robert Dyas’ owner and chairman, Theo Paphitis, says: “We’re absolutely delighted to be a part of the Bracknell community, offering customers the chance to access thousands of fantastic home and garden products at great prices and, importantly, at their convenience.”
