Shoppers air frustration at UK fast-fashion retailer’s failure to honour refunds after falling into insolvency

Customers of the collapsed fast fashion retailer Missguided will not receive refunds for returns, administrators of the business have confirmed.

It comes after the Manchester-based company fell into insolvency last month after racking up millions of pounds in outstanding payments to creditors.

From a walk in the woods at night to exploring a ghostly derelict building or riding a bloodcurdling rollercoaster, can a dose of fear make you forget your everyday worries?

‘Fifty feet, Danny!” Lucy shrieks as we ascend to the top of the Big One, the UK’s tallest rollercoaster. “One hundred feet … one hundred and fifty feet … two hun …” she continues. “OK, I get it; we’re high,” I reply. “Oh God, oh God, oh God! Aaaaaargh!” We scream as our carriage reaches the track’s apex and plummets back to Earth at 70mph.

I have come to Blackpool Pleasure Beach with a friend to try to scare myself happy. Fear is said to be as good for mental wellbeing as a dose of mindfulness. I am also hoping that exposing myself to acute fear will help me to cope with my terror of public speaking. After we exit the ride, everything appears a little sharper, colours seem brighter and sounds are crystal clear– rollercoaster Zen.

With thousands of miles of coast – including the Canary Islands and the Balearics – Spain has a vast array of beaches – from the pine-shrouded coves of Menorca and Mallorca to the endless powdery sand glories of the Doñana in Andalucía and brilliant town beaches like La Concha in San Sebastián.

We want to hear about your favourite Spanish beach – whether it’s a family go-to loved by locals, a lively spot with beach bars, or a remote stretch of sand accessed only on foot.

Grenfell’s former residents will never forget the fear and chaos of 14 June 2017, or the anger and grief that followed. They talk about the night when everything changed – and their long battles to regain some kind of normality

Unable to work due to disability. Lived on the ninth floor

With the help of some innovative kit, these adventurers can easily negotiate both land and waterways

The public footpath lay barely 20 metres from where I stood, promising a stroll along the river, passing fields and through woodland, well away from any road. Yet there was something in my way blocking access to it. The very river it meanders alongside – the Thames – flowed between me and this legally designated right of way.

I checked my Ordnance Survey map of this part of Berkshire to see how to reach the path, but there was no other footpath that would legally lead me to the island on which it sat (a bridge I spotted was not a right of way, with a closed gate). This was a permitted pathway that no one could actually access, unless they had a boat.

Raya, 56, and Kate, 46, met in 2015 at a roller derby match. They now live together in Melbourne with Kate’s children

In 2015, Raya had sworn off relationships. “I was in a kind of self-imposed celibacy,” she says. “I’m a cisgender lesbian, but I’d made too many mistakes in love because I hadn’t come to terms with my sexuality.”

Towards the end of summer, she was invited to watch a women’s roller derby match in Melbourne, Australia, where she lives. “I’d never had any interest in it before, but I’d been told it was a very LGBTQ-inclusive sport, so I thought I’d check it out.” As she walked in, she spotted a woman on the door. “I noticed she was transgender,” says Raya. “And I remember thinking she seemed sweet and shy.”

The tower’s former residents will never forget the fear and chaos of 14 June 2017, or the anger and grief that followed. They talk about the night when everything changed – and their long battles to regain some kind of normality

Former mental health worker currently on sabbatical. Lived on the fourth floorI moved into Grenfell when I was four. The best thing about living there was the community. We had people of different ages, backgrounds, ethnicities and religions. I always remember the smells on the landing, all the cooking from flats. I’d try and guess who was cooking what, and where it was coming from.

My son’s behavior when he began preschool was concerning. As I desperately searched for answers, I realized I was on my own

My four-year-old son, Oscar, is a Covid kid. Born in 2017, he was two and a half when the world went into lockdown. Like the rest of his generation, he has spent a significant part of his formative years away from family, friends, classrooms and other aspects of public life.

Like everyone else at the start of the pandemic, we did our best: we pulled Oscar out of the small, at-home daycare he’d been attending for just three months and sheltered in place. I put my career aside and formed a pod with four other mothers. My husband and I took Oscar and his baby sister to parks, crossing our fingers they wouldn’t come too close to other kids.

Fast fashion boomed in the pandemic, but post-lockdown many others in the market are suffering too

The collapse of fast fashion retailer Missguided has been a bin fire for suppliers, shoppers and investors. As administrators pore over the books this week, and creditors clamour for their money, the question being asked is: was its demise is a warning bell for the online rag trade, or just an isolated case of one company living up to its name?

Missguided’s creations were once paraded proudly around the pool on Love Island and promoted by a stream of influencers in marketing tie-ups. The Manchester-based firm, or at least its brand, is now destined to become part of Sports Direct founder Mike Ashley’s empire after his firm shelled out £20m for intellectual property rights.
