Warkworth Lions and the volunteers from Mahu Vollies will be re-running Covid-19 Lockdown Assisted Shopping at Warkworth New World tomorrow (Sept 7) from 9am to noon. If you are older, immune-compromised, or juggling little ones, come down to New World and see a volunteer at the front of the supermarket wearing a high-viz vest and PPE. To use the service, bring a short, clear shopping list which volunteers can take and do your shopping, while you wait safely in your car. Once your groceries are collected, you’ll be asked to pay at the cafe counter inside the supermarket foyer before taking your items. Wear a mask when talking to volunteers. Organiser Peter Henderson says numbers using the service substantially increased last week on the week before. He suspects the fact that many people are now vaccinated means shoppers are generally more confident than they were during lockdown last year, but there are those who still value the service.
