Last Order Dates for Christmas

It’s almost time to dust off the Christmas jumpers, pump up the volume on the Christmas playlist and over-indulge in mince pies. Yes, it’s almost December which means Christmas is officially around the corner!

For us at Vision, it means that our staff will soon have a well-earned break (as will some of our loyal and valued customers, hopefully, too!) and some much-needed downtime to enjoy the festive period with their friends and family.

With couriers across Europe also closing their doors for Christmas, we’ve chosen to provide our customers with those all-important closure dates to pop in your diary before we begin trading again.
