Historic Eastbourne family barbers moves location after 32 years
Family-run Squires on Seaside, was forced to close on Tuesday (January 24) after owner Dee Brookshow passed away last September.
However, her daughter Theresa Hall, granddaughter Suzannah Thomas and family friend Arran White have managed to secure a new shop just five doors down from the salon and it re-opened today (Thursday).

“Squires has been a part of the history of Eastbourne, but I’m sure the new Squires will continue to be an asset to the town.
“Our mum was very poorly with Multiple System Atrophy but my sister and I managed to care for her right up to when she died.
“I know it would have made her very proud to see what they are doing and what they have all achieved.

Arran said, “The new place is exactly the same, we have just moved five doors down.
“But we have put a lot of our own ideas into it.
“We would like to thank everyone for all the support, and hopefully customers will continue to visit us.”
