my plughole in my shower has been stripped because someone left bleach and limescale remover over a number of days. Can I replace the plughole or has anyone got any suggestions?

When you say stripped , what do you mean. If you can get under the shower tray it should be easy to insert s new "waste" - also known to rookies as a plughole. Some wastes screw out from the top, and a trip to plumb centre with the old part should be successful as they can supply a new waste.
