Hello, sorry to hear about this – we sent you an email to see if we can put you in touch with the right people 🙂
I come under the extremely vulnerable and recieved a letter from my gp. I dont really want to rely on donated food from food banks as I’m sure there are those out there that are worse off than myself financially and could do with the extra help. Is there anyway of getting priority deliveries from the super markets being one of the higher at risk. That way I’m not putting pressure on the charities that are available.
Hello, you will need to complete this online form: https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus-extremely-vulnerable. It looks like supermarkets need people to register before giving priority deliveries – they will contact you. This article is quite useful: https://www.morpethherald.co.uk/read-this/how-register-vulnerable-customer-and-get-priority-home-delivery-supermarkets-2533413. We hope this is of help. Best wishes Wen team
