Next working day UK delivery no longer guaranteed

While most orders through this website are delivered next working day after dispatch, this is no longer guaranteed as the UK courier delivery service no longer guarantees this, due to increased pressure on their services during the pandemic

We aim to get your order into the next courier collection available after you order is received. Delivery will usually take 1-2 working days provided the item is in stock in our UK warehouse. This is not a guarantee of next working day delivery, please allow between 1 and 3 working days (as a guide) for UK delivery (and longer when seasonal pressures slow the courier service such as Christmas and over bank holidays). 

Orders need to be placed, and paid for before 3.00pm weekdays, to achieve the highest chance of next working day delivery.
