Morrisons' Measures to Help the Most Vulnerable

That the Parliament welcomes the steps taken by Morrisons to help the most vulnerable in society during the COVID-19 pandemic, including increasing online capacity, creating thousands more weekly delivery slots and the introduction of a new doorstep delivery service, specifically designed for vulnerable and older people; notes that this scheme offers next-day home delivery and includes a new call centre where people can phone and place an order from a list of essential items; recognises the importance of this phoneline service in providing an opportunity for people in self-isolation to have a conversation that can reduce feelings of loneliness; understands that Morrisons has created a range of different food boxes to meet the needs of customers who are self-isolating, which can be ordered online, ranging from cupboard essentials to ready-prepared dishes; welcomes the launch of Morrisons' food donations coming from its manufacturing sites, which are being run for an extra hour every day, to local foodbanks; understands that by July 2020 this will amount to £10 million of food to help meet the needs of local communities, and thanks Morrisons for all its support and initiatives at this difficult time.
