Earlier this week, many local residents expressed disappointment online after learning that Miller & Carter's Hockley Heath location would be closed on Christmas Day.

One Facebook user wrote about the Christmas Day shutdown, ‘13 of us were booked in for 12.00 today and did not receive a call to inform of the situation. Safe to say the day has been a write off, perhaps if we had been informed early enough we might have had time to pull some scraps together.’
