Gaterell's Butchers, Felpham Post Office and Grande Wines will offer the service to help people who are self isolating amid the coronavirus outbreak.

Terry Gaterell who owns the butchers said: "It's something we were gonna do anyway as retail is a bit quiet. We decided we could come together and do it under one roof and do pretty much everything you might get at a supermarket.

"We can get some leaflets out and offer free delivery locally. It has been really good. We have had numerous phone calls checking what we are doing.

"Felpham is quite unique and it is a really close-knit community."

Customers will be able to get meat, fresh vegetables, ready meals, beer, wine, stamps and anything sold in the post office via the delivery service.

Some residents have called up to offer their support as delivery drivers. Find out more by calling 01243 870900
