The Works is one of the UK’s leading multi-channel specialist retailers of value gifts, arts, crafts, toys, books and stationery.
Our mission is to offer customers a unique and enjoyable shopping experience, built on our core principles of value, variety and quality. And our purpose, "People who do, inspiring people to do" is driven by our unique 'can-do' culture, built over decades, and our passion for inspiring our artistic and crafty customers to get creative.
We sell high-quality, great value products in four specialist categories, primarily through our network of approximately 530 stores in the UK & Ireland. Our stores can be found on high-streets, in retail parks, shopping centres and as concessions in various locations. We also have a significant and growing online presence that enables customers to shop any time of the day and an extended range of products that are not available in our stores. Our multi-channel offering, one of the first of its kind in the value retail sector, includes our popular Click & Collect service, offering further convenience for our customers.
One of the first of its kind in the value retail sector is our “Together” loyalty scheme, which further enhances our offering, underpins our multi-channel proposition and is a strong differentiator for our brand within the value sector.
