Miles Morgan Travel staff offer to do vulnerable clients’ shopping
Miles Morgan Travel staff have offered to help local clients who are vulnerable to coronavirus by checking in on them and doing their shopping.
Founder Miles Morgan posted a video message on the company’s Facebook site saying: "Over the past 14 years Miles Morgan Travel has built its huge success on the support from our local community and our customers.
"In conversation with my staff, we’ve decided we’d like to offer something back. It seems inevitable we are going to end up in a scenario where people could well be locked down for two weeks or more.
"We’re also aware we have an awful lot of customers that may be aged over 70 or vulnerable for the coronavirus.
"If you are one of those people and you don’t have local friends, local family close to you that can call in with your shopping and to check that you are OK, then please get in touch with us. We will get your shopping for you.
"We’ll phone you every day or so just to check that you are alright and everything’s good with you. You don’t need to worry. We’d be delighted to help you."
