Covid-19 Business Update

Our prevention policy for Covid 19-last updated 8/9/21

Everyone at Valuemed medical supplies UK in our offices and warehouses and our delivery partners, are continuing to work very hard to ensure that we are able to get your medical supply orders to you as quickly and safely, and in line with all UK Government guidelines for UK businesses.

Thankfully levels of Covid 19 infection are currently very low in our part of rural Norfolk, and have been low throughout the pandemic, and we have managed to maintain the service we offer, while following UK government guidelines.

    Covid 19 measures 

    • The health and safety of our staff, customers and delivery partners is always of the upmost importance to us.
    • Social distancing, use of hand sanitiser and sanitising sprays, regular Covid testing and increased cleaning and hygiene measures in line with UK government guidelines are in place in our UK offices and warehouses, to protect our team and customers, and we are operating at normal staff capacity.
    • So far we have had no staff illness due to covid 19 in our UK offices or warehouses, and the day to day operations of the business are continuing.
    • Levels of Covid-19 in rural Norfolk, where we are based, are currently very low and have thankfully been so through the whole pandemic so far.
    • If you have any concerns please do not hesitate to contact our customer support team by e-mail or telephone during our office hours. Contact information at bottom of this page
    • We will continue to monitor the scientific and UK government advice and will publish regular updates on our website.

    Dispatch times

    • So far dispatch times from our UK warehouses are unaffected.
    • Most orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday are still being dispatched from us on the same day either by Royal Mail or courier.

    Delivery times 

    • While UK delivery times have improved considerably, Covid-19 measures are still slowing some of the deliveries in some areas due to staff shortages in the Royal Mail and the courier delivery companies. This varies from day to day and area to area.
    • We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause to you.
    • Due to this your order may take a little longer than usual.
    • We thank you for your continued patience and support during these exceptional times
    • For the quickest UK delivery, and the best chance of a next day UK delivery, please select Royal Mail Special Delivery or priority courier delivery
    • International deliveries by both courier and mail may also take longer than usual.
