and live on Freeview channel 276
The service, delivered by a small group of volunteers, aims to reduce the number of people travelling into Alnwick for collections and therefore help cut the risk of coronavirus spreading.
Coun Gordon Castle, member for Alnwick on Northumberland County Council, said: “I’ve noted that many other generous volunteers are still driving in and queuing for prescriptions for people outside of these arrangements.”
