Convenience store delivery platform, Snappy Shopper, has announced an exclusive partnership with disability discounter Purpl.

The pair’s initiative is aimed at easing the cost of living for millions of disabled people across the UK.

Eligible Purpl members will receive a 25% discount on their first online grocery order via Snappy Shopper, available through the app and its website. The offer includes same-day delivery (within 30–60 minutes) or click and collect at selected local retailers. Additionally, all Purpl users will benefit from three months of free delivery during the trial.

The initiative supports the 16.1m people in the UK - 24% of the population - living with disabilities, offering tangible savings on everyday essentials. According to disability equality charity Scope, disabled households require an additional £1,010 per month to maintain the same standard of living as non-disabled ones.

To access the discount, customers can currently register for free with Purpl and upload proof of disability. Verifications are typically completed within seconds, after which a discount code becomes active for use on Snappy Shopper.

Mike Callachan, CEO of Snappy Shopper, said: “We’re delighted to partner with Purpl to make Snappy Shopper more accessible to customers living with a disability. We hope this initiative will offer practical support and genuine savings at a time when they’re most needed.”

Founded in July 2024 by Georgina Colman - who lives with multiple sclerosis and ADHD - Purpl was created to help tackle the extra costs often associated with disability. The platform also provides advice and guidance.

Coleman said: “I know first-hand how difficult it can be to get out and about when you have a disability, and it’s worse when you have no one else to pop out to the shop for you. Being able to use Snappy Shopper and get a delivery within an hour will make such a difference to the disabled community.”
