With 17 million people living within 2 km of a wilko store we can help fulfil this need. As an essential retailer, we’re here to help keep your homes running smoothly. Whether it’s a few bits to make sure your home is kept spick and span, or those little essentials to help look after your family – we’ve got it all here in one place.

This may mean that sometimes, customers may experience a short wait and we thank them for their patience.
