As many of you know I have a daughter who lives in a very rural small town 52 miles away She is disabled, just cannot walk very far, about 5 steps at a time, falls a great deal, has learning disability and Type I diabetic and she lives alone with care a few times a day. She has not received an NHS letter so is not on anyones database for priority food deliveries. But the trouble is she can't get out and is stuck for getting in food.
How on earth do we get deliveries of food. Usually do online with Asda, no slots no help on contact. Tried Sainsbury , they are overwhelmed and not taking phone calls. Same with Tesco. There seems to be no community help that I can find. The carers really don't have the time to do all the shop that she needs.
So I am going to do a shop, do the 110 miles round trip and drop the food at her house. Will have to go in the back door and put it on the work surface as she can't bend bend down without falling. I will also visit the Health Centre whilst I am there and ask if there is any help.
