Delivery information

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS
Our staff will be taking a well-deserved break over the festive season which means our offices will be closed from 5.30pm on Monday 23rd December until Thursday 2nd January 2025, when we will reopen at 9:00am.  Any book or printed journal orders placed during that time will be dispatched to you as a priority on our return. Orders of Audio Downloads and PDF back issues of the HG Journal will be sent to you immediately as usual.

Our delivery costs are based on the total weight of the items you order and your delivery location. Packages over 2kg will be dispatched in separate packages. For bulk orders, or orders over 10kg, please contact our office on +44 (0)1323 811690 to discuss your order and delivery costs.
