Charity Begins At
Home For Solidor
Solidor is incredibly proud of its Staffordshire roots
and always does whatever it can to support and
raise awareness of local charitable causes.
There are few more
worthy causes than
Douglas MacMillan
Hospice, is the only
adult hospice providing
care and support every
year to more than 2,500
people across Stokeon-Trent and North
Staffordshire and Solidor is delighted to be
sponsoring their latest
annual fund-raising bike
ride, affectionately
known locally as the
‘Dougie Mac’ bike ride
On Sunday 18th May hundreds of people from across
the county will be taking to
their bicycles at the starting
point of Michelin Athletic
Club to raise vital funds for
the hospice.
Anyone can take part,
whether they’re a seasoned
cycling pro or a complete
biking novice. All they have
to do is pay a small entry
fee and acquire as much
sponsorship money as they
can before carefully navigating a 10, 50 or 110-mile
route.
Without the support of the
local community, Douglas
Macmillan Hospice could
not continue to provide free
of charge care, so every
penny counts!
A Solidor spokesperson
said: “It’s a privilege to have
our name associated with
such a fantastically rewarding event.”

rewarding event’

As of February 10th delivery dates
depend on postcode, with each area
broken up into zones and allocated a
set day to receive deliveries. Monday will be the North; Tuesday, West;
Wednesday, South; Thursday, South
East; Friday, East and home zones
will receive daily deliveries.
Roseview still deliver on a nationwide
basis and if you’re outside of the zones
you’ll still receive deliveries on an agreed
set day.
‘Incredibly busy 2013, which
has continued into 2014
Roseview’s production manager, Byron
Field, comments on the changes:
“An incredibly busy 2013, which has continued into 2014, means we can’t continue
with the current delivery schedule. Breaking
it down into zones means our customers
know exactly when they’ll get their windows and can plan their deliveries better.”
Owing to rising fuel prices Roseview will
also be adding a £30 delivery charge to
orders of less than £1000 (+VAT).
Customers are being contacted about the
changes and full details are on: www.
