Corringham store offers safer and quieter shopping slot for older and vulnerable during coronavirus measures

By Neil Speight 17th Mar 2020

THE Iceland store on St John's Way in Corringham has created a two hour time slot when older or vulnerable customers will be able to shop when it is quieter.

Between 10am and noon on Wednesday (starting tomorrow - Wednesday, 18 March) the store will restrict access to allow older shoppers to buy food when it is quieter amid the coronavirus outbreak.

Iceland said it was not a company policy, but it was allowing individual stores to decide how best to meet the needs of shoppers in their local areas.

The store has also revised its general opening hours with immediate effect.

It will be open from 10am to 6pm (aside from Wednesday's restricted two hours) and from 10am to 4pm on Sundays.
