Hi guy's, as the title of my topic will suggest, I'm in Edinburgh and my mum is in Alhuarin. My sisters and I have been trying for 2 weeks to get food to my mum, she has been out to get basics, but they are not shopping, if you know what I mean. But no New Online custom being allowed. She's only been there for 17 years!! So my question is!!

Are there any groups doing shopping trips?

You could try Age Concern - I think the nearest one is in Coin.

Can’t believe just one person offered to help ?! No one got a car then ? If you haven’t taken up the only offer you got I will pick up and deliver food or whatever supplies she needs going forward - she will only pay the receipt amount plus five euros for my fuel . Done loads of deliveries for people last week in this position. Cheers . Mark

Cheers Mark, it's all sorted now!Unfortunately, I can believe it in these time's!! We got in touch with a few groups and out of them had 87 offers of help, I also think it depends on what site your on!!! Cheers again for your offer of help, you de man!

Cheers Barney.
