The jobs of more than half of the workforce at the DIY chain Homebase are at risk after the retailer's owners called in administrators following a failed attempt at a sale.

Homebase have a branch in Ledbury.

Its owner Hilco had been looking to sell the struggling retailer, but has not managed to find an outright buyer.

The owner of homeware chain The Range is buying up to 70 stores and the brand, safeguarding about 1,600 jobs.

This leaves 49 stores without a buyer, and thousands of jobs at risk in the stores and head office. Administrators Teneo declined to say which stores were at risk of closing at this stage.
