Announcement online and on the news Tuesday and Wednesday:

A number of you suggested that we reserve an hour in stores for elderly and vulnerable customers. In response to this request, we will set aside the first hour in every supermarket this Thursday, 19th March, for elderly and vulnerable customers. If you or an elderly family member, friend or neighbour would like to shop during this hour, please check online for your local supermarket opening hours. For all other customers, supermarkets will open one hour after the published opening time. I hope that you can respect this decision and will work with us as we try our best to help those that need it the most.

Not the case - Sainsbury's Chiswick let in the general public and advised that they were not allowed to be served until 8 o'clock. So general free for all and stock piling of trolleys. Poor management of the situation and total lack of respect for our older generation.

My friends Mother visits Sainsbury in Bognor this morning. Two queues one for the elderly and the Manager goes along the other queue advising that they have priority and thanking everyone for their patience. One door is opened at 7am and the elderly enter, no need for the Security guards to get involved. The other queue waits until 8 am. My friends Mother has everything on her shopping list.
What a different tale to tell.
