Delivery information

 

Gift Shop

We are continuing to deliver online orders through contactless delivery. Delivery times may take a little longer than usual due to the additional safe working policies in the warehouse and with our shipping partners however we will get your order to you as soon as possible. Your support is extremely valued by us, now more than ever.

Custom prints

Our custom print orders are made to order and delivered separately from other orders. Our click and collect service will not be available for custom print orders as these products are made off site and a delivery charge is applied to send the order from our supplier.

All our custom print products are made to order and should be dispatched within approximately 14 working days upon receipt of your order. Occasionally, however, a particular item may take slightly longer due to the custom-made nature of these products.

Depending on the products ordered, orders are shipped by Courier or Tracked Mail and we will provide tracking information for your order via email.

All our products have a delivery time estimate associated with them when you order. We try very hard to ensure that these times are accurate and we continually review and update them to reflect the latest product status. All delivery times are based on a standard working week. Delivery is normally on the next business day after your order is produced within mainland UK, within 5-7 business days to Europe and 10-12 for the rest of the world. For international deliveries by Royal Mail, you can normally use the tracking number on your local mail service provider’s website and obtain more detailed information on delivery progress. This facility is only available once the shipment arrives in the destination country and is tracked into the local mail system.

You can cancel a custom print order at any time prior to despatch. Simply send us an email, including your order number for quick reference. Charges for custom print orders are calculated at checkout. For more information about our charges please contact us directly.

Membership delivery

Delivery of Membership is free of charge. All new memberships will be dispatched from the Membership Office within ten working days of receipt of your order. All Memberships are sent by second class mail.
