Notice re: COVID 19 ‘Coronavirus’ Pandemic dated 21st March 2020

After considerable careful consideration the LAMA committee have decided that all LAMA services will be suspended from 23rd March 2020 until further notice.

We will continue to collect prescriptions on Tuesdays and deliver them to Lerryn River Stores.

There are individuals in our organisation who are happy to provide private shopping and delivery services to our service users who wish to take up this offer.

We will contact all our regular users to inform them of the situation and offer this service.
