For Service Users who are unable to do their own grocery shopping, QCL provide a regular shopping service.

Features of this service are:-

• Assistance to draw up a shopping list.
• Fridge management, including checking of "use-by" dates.
• Liaison with family members where applicable.
• Cash handling and management of receipts.

QCL usually provide a shopping service as part of a more complex support plan.
