Delivery Issues
We strive to provide a fast turnaround time on all orders. At checkout, we offer both a Free Delivery option (2–4 working days) and a Next Day Delivery option via Royal Mail Tracked 24.

Orders placed Monday to Friday before 3:00 PM and selecting Next Day Delivery are typically delivered on the next working day. Please note that only weekdays and Saturdays are considered working days for delivery purposes.

While we aim to dispatch and deliver all orders within the stated timeframes, delivery services are provided by third-party couriers. On occasion, Royal Mail or other delivery providers may experience operational delays that are beyond our control. As such, delivery dates are estimates only and cannot be guaranteed.

We are not liable for delays caused by courier networks, adverse weather conditions, strikes, or other circumstances outside of our control. If your order has not arrived within the expected timeframe, please contact us and we will assist in investigating the issue.

As a gesture of goodwill, if you have paid for our Next Day Delivery service and your order is not delivered on the next working day, we may, at our discretion, refund the delivery charge paid. This will be assessed on a case-by-case basis and does not apply where delays are caused by circumstances beyond the courier’s control, such as severe weather, industrial action, or other exceptional events.


Delivery Address Changes and Customer Instructions
Once an order has been dispatched, any changes requested by the customer to the original delivery instructions, including but not limited to redirecting the parcel to a pickup location, requesting delivery to a neighbour, safe place, alternative address, or any other delivery alteration made through the courier, are made at the customer's own risk.

Our responsibility is limited to shipping the order to the delivery address provided by the customer at the time of purchase. We are not liable for any delays, loss, damage, failed delivery, or missing parcels resulting from changes made to the delivery instructions after dispatch.

Where tracking confirms that the parcel has been delivered according to the customer's amended instructions or to the original address provided at checkout, refunds, replacements, or claims will not be accepted.
