When will my delivery arrive?

What will delivery cost?
Nothing!!! This is a free service for the whole of the Alston Moor Church Parish, which reaches down to Halton Lea Gate and Coanwood. It is run entirely by volunteers.
What about other food shops?
At the moment, we can’t include the Co-op or Spar because they have no way to accept remote payments. If this changes, we will use them as well.
Organised by St Augustine’s Parish Church with Alston Moor Parish Council, and support from our County and District councillors.
