Send flowers to Manchester Royal Infirmary – next-day delivery
Sending flowers to Manchester Royal Infirmary is a thoughtful way to brighten a patient's day during their hospital stay. When selecting blooms, opt for fragrant-free or lightly-scented varieties to respect other patients' sensitivities, and choose hypoallergenic flowers such as roses, sunflowers, or gerberas. Hospital deliveries go to the main reception or mailing room at Manchester Royal Infirmary rather than straight to the ward, so include the patient's full name and ward. Ward rules on fresh flowers vary, so a quick check with the hospital before ordering is a good idea. Next-day delivery is possible when the order is in before 5:15pm Monday to Friday, or 10:45am on Saturday and Sunday. Standard delivery is not a guaranteed service, so choose the courier upgrade from £7.49 if the flowers must arrive on a set date.
Frequently asked questions about flowers to Manchester Royal Infirmary
Can I send flowers to Manchester Royal Infirmary?
In most cases, yes. Flowers for patients at Manchester Royal Infirmary are delivered to the hospital's main reception or mailing room, and staff take them on to the ward. Check first that the ward accepts fresh flowers, as some units do not.
When are flowers delivered to Manchester Royal Infirmary?
A delivery time slot cannot be booked for Manchester Royal Infirmary. It can be as late as 7:30pm, or later at peak times.
Which flowers are suitable to send to a hospital?
The best hospital flowers are fragrance-free or mild-scented varieties, as strong scents can be overwhelming in clinical environments. It is worth choosing gerberas, sunflowers, roses, and tulips, which are colourful, long-lasting, and generally hypoallergenic. Avoid lilies and heavily-scented blooms, as these may cause discomfort to patients or those with respiratory sensitivities.
