Medpac's Pick Me Up Parcels

What are Medpac's pick me up parcels?

The recent world events have shown us all how much community means to us, whilst also being one of the only times people have been separated from their loved ones due to strict social distancing rules. 

At Medpac, it struck us that - despite being physically separated from people - we have never felt more part of something than ever before. 

We wanted to find a way for you to show love and support to your family, friends and neighbours that would help them through this tough time, and also serve a purpose for the future. So, we’re launching our ‘Pick Me Up’ Parcels. 

These parcels have been curated to bring a little joy into people’s lives, and also contain a Large Insulated Medpac - perfect for storing medical supplies safely in the home. 

Each parcel costs £19.99 and will be posted via Royal Mail.

Postage

We store and distribute all our orders from our own office in Suffolk and as a small team, we take cleanliness and hygiene very seriously.

Public Health England (PHE) has advised that people receiving parcels are not at risk of contracting the coronavirus, and we are continuously in touch with Royal Mail and our couriers to ensure your packages are delivered as quickly as possible.

In order to protect both their staff and customers as much as possible, Royal Mail and couriers will not be handing over their hand-held devices to customers to capture signatures. They will instead log the name of the person accepting the item. This will apply to all deliveries that require a signature. 

Additionally, for all customers (including those who are self-isolating) where we need to deliver any parcel that won’t fit through your letterbox, Royal Mail will place your item at your door. Having knocked on your door, we will then step aside to a safe distance while you retrieve your item. This will ensure your item is delivered securely rather than being left outside. 

If you are unable to come to the door at all, Royal Mail will issue a ‘Something for You’ card, advising of other ways you can arrange to get your item. For example, by getting a friend or family member to collect the parcel from your local Customer Service Point on your behalf. In this situation, and to keep your mail as secure as possible, they will need to bring along the card Royal Mail left for you and a form of ID in the name of the person the item is addressed to.
