The standard return policy allows customers to return unwanted items within 30 days of purchase or receipt. Returns are completely free of charge if you bring your items back in person to any physical, standalone The Works retail store in the United Kingdom. You must present your original dispatch note or order confirmation email as proof of purchase. Alternatively, you can return items by post using a carrier of your choice; unless the items arrived damaged or faulty, the customer is responsible for the cost of return postage. All returned items must be unused, unopened, in a resellable condition, and in their original packaging.
