A family firm that manufactures underwear for high street brands and is backed by retail expert Mary Portas has gone into administration with the loss of 33 jobs.

Headen & Quarmby, a 79-year-old business based in Middleton, Greater Manchester, was chosen by Ms Portas to make underwear for her Kinky Knickers brand.
