About the Service
How it runs and who it's for
Our volunteer-run, free drug delivery service started in June 2006, using a Subaru Justy and a team of volunteer drivers, coordinated by Vicky Belam.
This service is for the 70% of our patients classed as 'dispensing patients' and means those rural patients who live more than a mile from the surgery and who receive their medication directly from us, rather than from the chemist.
We deliver to your door or to the local shops in Winsford, Exford and Withypool or the Auction Rooms at Wheddon Cross. If you request, we can leave the drugs in a sealed box that must be waterproof and child and animal proof or else with a designated neighbour. If you're not there and none of these options are available, we return the prescription to the surgery and you will then have to make arrangements to have the drugs collected yourself.
