THEN vs NOW
We're reflecting back on 27 years and how far we've come.
Take a look at our very first shopping receipt from 29th June 1995 for just 5 customers!
Now we do almost 5000 deliveries a month for 2577 older people and it grows every year.

It's our birthday!
On 29th June 1995 a team of volunteers in Dumfries rallied together and made the very first shopping deliveries to local older people.
Check out our very first van - and who else remembers Kwik Save? 😉
