Please contact us via email or telephone before purchasing for a quote for the extra delivery cost if you are ordering from overseas or outlying areas of the UK.
Orders are dispatched via Royal Mail Tracked 48hr (with FREE Returns!), they are collected from us around 3pm every working day (Monday – Friday). If your dispatch email arrives from 3pm onwards the parcel will likely be collected from us on the next working day.
All orders are sent via Royal Mail Tracked 48hr Services. If a mobile number has been provided with the order, Royal Mail will send an alert via text the day before and the morning of the delivery with an estimate delivery window within 2hrs. You will also have the choice to delivery to a local collection point, a neighbour or an agreed SafePlace. Photographs will be taken of items left in a SafePlace. Majority of parcels are too big for a letterbox and will require someone present to accept delivery.
Whilst we aim to dispatch orders complete in one parcel, sometimes this is not possible. If an item on your order is out of stock for longer than a week to 10 days, we will dispatch what we can of the order as soon as it is ready.
During peak times* any items that are out of stock at the time of ordering, even if only for a couple of days, will be dispatched in separate parcels. Unless we inform you otherwise, the outstanding items should arrive within a week to 10 days. Please ensure that you check all paperwork that arrives with the order – the delivery note will be on the front of your parcel with your address on. This delivery note will state any items outstanding that are to follow in a separate delivery.
If an item you have ordered has arrived and doesn’t fit or is no longer required it can be sent back for an exchange or a refund provided it is still current uniform. Any items sent back must be returned in a new and unused condition with any labels intact and, wherever possible, in the original packaging.
All orders are dispatched with a returns form on the back of the delivery note which is found on the front of the parcel with your name and address on. This is to be filled out and returned with the items by post to the address that is provided on the form. If you have mislaid your delivery note you can download a copy of our returns form below.
