Hi,
The back has become detached from one of our kitchen base cupboards!
There is a kick board I can remove but that’s about it.
Any simple solutions on how I can reattach the back would be most welcomed.
Cheers.
 
You may find that the back is a puny piece of 3mm hardboard which has become distorted by now - it locates in a groove in the carcass. If it won't go back, consider making a new back from plywood, fixed to the carcass with some timber bearers.

I replaced mine with 18mm mdf, good tight fit also prevents the cup'd from ever distorting [no matter how hard the Mrs pushes the crockery in].
 
If it's just bowed out of the bottom slot and not completely fallen off, you could try fixing a screw into it and then pulling back into the slot. A touch of adhesive would keep it in place.
