What if I'm not in when you deliver?
Royal Mail deliveries will usually be made on Mondays to Fridays between 9am and 5pm. We realise that occasionally Royal Mail may try to deliver an order and you (or the intended recipient) may not be available. Each time an attempt is made, Royal Mail will leave a card at the delivery address confirming that they have tried to deliver. This card contains a contact number so you can speak to the Royal Mail depot and agree a convenient delivery time or arrange for you to collect the order directly from their depot. After 3 failed delivery attempts, your items will be returned to our store.

Why do you store my details?
We ask for a small amount of information such as your name and address and store it in our secure environment so the next time you return, we can speed up the time it takes you to complete your purchase.

Is storing my details safe?
We realise how important it is to securely store any information that you provide and as a result, we maintain the highest level of security.
