Does anyone know of a newsagents or other service who will delivery newspapers to an elderly couple on Newcastle Road?
My grandad is approaching 90 and has decided he’s decided it is time to give up driving. Like many of the older generation they have been getting newspapers daily for decades and we would rather they didn’t feel like they were missing out on anything more and thought to just get the newspapers delivered. Turns out, it’s not so easy.
We’ve tried shop on Atkinson Road, it’s too far, shops on Moreland Street and Croziers Street neither do deliveries. Sunderland echo do a subscription with various online stuff and a voucher to pick it up in a shop, which isn’t much use here.
I know newspapers are a bit of a relic, I certainly haven’t opened one up for many years, but for the older generation it’s just normal.
