*INFORMATION REGARDING COVID-19*

At Jellycat, the health and wellbeing of our customers, employees, and their families is of the utmost importance. Our customer care team is still available, all working remotely and are very happy to answer any queries you may have. Please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Our dispatch team continue to work closely following the government guidelines and health mandates within our warehouse. Along with the recommended social distancing and the increase in rigorous cleaning practices, we have put in place extra measures to ensure their safety.
At this time, we are still packing and shipping orders as normal, and we are doing everything within our power to ensure our fluffy friends arrive with you within our advertised timeframes. However, there may be delays with all our delivery options due to our couriers also respecting government guidelines on social distancing and in the case of some international deliveries, delays may occur due to government restrictions on transportation.
We are working very closely with each of our couriers and taking on their advice regarding any shipping restrictions to individual countries. If you are not able to find your country on the destination drop-down menu during checkout, it is likely this is because the couriers have advised delivery is not possible at this time. This is something we are continuously monitoring, and any changes to delivery availability will be reflected on the Jellycat.com website.
We want to thank you for your patience and understanding as we share this period of uncertainty together.
