Global Supply Chain Issues
Please be aware that we are experiencing very long lead times as a result of global supply chain issues and increased demand. Laptops, PCs, Tablets, Mobile phones, PPE and Gases are particularly affected. If you place an order for any of these items please check that stock is available. When ordering Laptops, Tablets or Mobile Phones, the lead times quoted are subject to change and cannot be relied on at present. We encourage you to order alternatives that are in stock and to avoid configure to order products if items are needed in a timely manner.
