Our contract with you

Once you have placed an order on the website and we have validated your card payment and accepted your order, we will send you an email confirming your order and setting out what meals you have ordered, the delivery date(s) and the prices of those meals.

These terms regulate the supply of meals to you by ICare (GB) Ltd. Any other terms, conditions or representations (other than those made fraudulently or implied by statute) are excluded.

We may update these terms from time to time. Any changes will be notified to you via the email address provided by you on registration or by a suitable notice on the website.

Price and delivery

Meal prices are shown on the website. There is no delivery charge. For hot meals, there is no minimum order, so you can order just one meal. For frozen meals, there is a minimum order of 5 frozen meals per order.

Processing orders takes a little time. For hot meals, we need 3 days from receiving your order before we can deliver. For frozen meals, we need 7 days from receiving your order.

These lead times are built into our website, so the website will tell you all the days when we can deliver your hot meal or frozen meals. We regret that you will not be able to select a delivery date that falls within either of these periods.

Registration

In order to place an order, you must first register or have a valid account on our website.

To place an order, you must be over 18, require delivery to an address in our delivery area, and have a credit card or debit card acceptable to us in your name.

We reserve the right to decline a new customer registration or suspend your account at any time and at our sole discretion.

When you register, you will create a username and password which you must use whenever you shop with us. Please keep these in a safe place as you will be responsible for all orders placed, and other activities carried out, under your password and username. You are also responsible for anything done using your email address, or using your email address in combination with your password.

Our right to suspend or cancel your registration

We can only deliver to an address which is stored in your account section of our website and which is within our delivery area

When you register on our website, you will be asked for the telephone number of a friend or relation. If you do not answer the door when we deliver, our delivery drivers will ensure that you are alright by contacting your next-door neighbour, or a friend or a next of kin as provided by you.

We acknowledge that in many cases next of kin will register on behalf of the relative to whom the meals will be delivered. In such cases, the contract of sale is made with the next of kin who will be liable for payment.

Cancelling or changing orders

You can cancel or change your order at any time. The way our systems work means that if you want to remove meals from or add meals to your order and keep the same delivery date, you need to let us know before 4 pm on the day before your order is due to be delivered. This also applies if you want to cancel your order. This helps us keep our costs down and our prices low and releases delivery slots for other customers.

However, if you forget or change your mind later, simply tell our driver when s/he delivers your order, and s/he will take away the meals you don’t want. Please note that you cannot return a meal once we have delivered it.

You can change your order anytime up to delivery, but we won’t necessarily be able to deliver on the delivery date you originally selected. We may need to agree on another day and time to complete your order.

If on delivery, the quality of any meal is not to our usual high standards, we will happily credit the money. You must let us know as soon as possible (you can tell our driver when s/he makes the delivery, or up to 7 working days after we deliver your order.

If you cancel your order and we have already debited your credit or debit card, we will hold your payment as a credit until your next order. If you do not wish to order again please let us know and we will arrange a refund.

Your Wellbeing

What our customers say.

My mother came home from the hospital and needed arrangements for hot meals. ICare set this up very quickly, the food was terrific, my mother was very happy with the selection and the helpful drivers. She looks forward to their visit, they are so friendly and it took the pressure off us to be there to prepare her meals.

Bev Hollins

Mum, and I, so appreciated your service and the lovely, cheerful manner of your staff. The drivers did become like friends to Mum and she so enjoyed seeing them every other day and having a little chat. The photo of her and Dom is wonderful! I shall really cherish that and spread it around the family, who will all enjoy it. I want to say thank you from me too. Your service was always so easy to deal with, so relaxed about sudden changes and so supportive in putting things in place - and Mum really enjoyed her meals. I recommend you to everyone I come across who is in a similar position to Mum.

I just wanted to express sincere thanks from me and my sister, for the support that Nicky, Dom and the team provide for our father, Tom. It is reassuring to know that Dad's lunch and supper are taken care of, as he cannot reliably do this for himself. Whenever, I have been visiting, while the food is being delivered, it is obvious that a happy smiling face and the great smelling meal is the highlight of his day.Well done. Your efforts are much appreciated 🙂

Thank you so much for your help in setting up a meal delivery service for my 90 year old uncle and 88 year old aunt. The service was a literal life saver for my uncle, who has Alzheimers, when he was left home alone when my aunt fell and broke her hip just before Christmas and had to go into hospital. My uncle was so impressed with the meals that he suggested that we add my aunt to the meal plan when she came home. They both really enjoy the meals: "smashing", "lovely", "ate the lot" are just a few of their comments. They have also mentioned that meal delivery is always on time and that the staff who bring the meals are always polite, pleasant and helpful. Our experience of the service is overwhelmingly positive and I would highly recommend icare to anyone considering a meal delivery service.Best wishes to you and your team for 2024

Amazing service provided by ICare. Great variety of tasty, healthy and nutritious meals brought daily to your home and served and plated. Welfare check done and any concerns are given to the family. The staff are so friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. As a family we have passed on recommendations and will continue to do so.

The whole process and experience of seƫting up this wonderful service for mum has been excellent Taking the pressure off us and giving us peace of mind. Everyone is so helpful. A first class service, with lovely hot meals delivered to mum daily, by a friendly caring team, who not only deliver but check on mums welfare during the visit.

The service at ICare has been amazing. From the initial phone call to ask about the service, to the people who deliver the meals every day. Everyone is extremely helpful and caring and always respond quickly to any unforeseen changes. Would highly recommend and have done so to a friend who also now uses the service for her Mother.

We have daily meals delivered to my in laws by the Market Harborough depot. I’ve just had to write to tell you how amazing the staff are. No matter what the problem they are always cheerful and very helpful. Also, the delivery man must have the patience of an angel. My in laws have dementia and their behaviours change daily so it can’t be easy for him. Please pass on our thanks for their help in a very difficult time for us.
