I would call Asda they have a helpline so should the other stores and ask them

Before the virus they had early shopping for people with Autism if not do you have anyone to help you get your shopping?

I don’t understand the government. Would they really want to and be able to help me get online shopping? I don’t understand how governments think. I recently applied for PIP- only because there aren’t face-to-face assessments at the moment and I find that difficult. I have been living on less than the minimum recommended for years.

I found it exceptionally difficult to go shopping even before this epidemic and often needed someone to go with me to the shops. There was a time when I first moved out of my parents house and couldn’t get to the shops and couldn’t tell anyone and so I didn’t have any food for days. I have since matured a bit since then and, thankfully, I do have one person (only one) who understands and helps me with shopping these days. I’m not scared of the virus but I am finding all the changes really difficult to deal with. I can’t imaging going to the shops at the moment. I believe I need priority online shopping but I have not been sure how to achieve this since I find it difficult to understand how society works.
