Parcel2Go helps parents stay in touch with gappers

Online international parcel delivery specialist Parcel2Go has begun helping a new round of parents and gap year students stay in touch across the world.
 
With A-level exam results set to be released on Thursday, August 15, hundreds of thousands of students will discover whether they have managed to secure a place at their first choice university. Many young people who choose not to go straight into further education will leave the UK on a gap year, heading for destinations around the world from the US and Canada to Australia and New Zealand.
 
Over the coming months, Parcel2Go will help thousands of people all over the UK to keep in touch with friends and relatives enjoying a gap year abroad. The company is calling on parents and travellers to discover how easy it is to organise parcel deliveries in seconds through the internet.       
 
Richard Mercer, marketing director at Parcel2Go, said: "The start of a gap year is both a very exciting time and an extremely daunting one for parents and students. Many youngsters heading off over the coming months will have never spent an extended time outside of the UK before and keeping in touch can be an important confidence boost when you’re on the other side of the world.
 
“We’ve designed our website at Parcel2Go.com to be as simple to use as possible, so friends of travellers, parents and other relatives can easily send out packages containing reminders of home and essentials to students spending the next few months abroad.”
 
Getting an international parcel delivery quote is simple and only requires customers to submit details of the pick-up and destination addresses and the weight and dimensions of the package being sent. A full list of the international services available through the site can be found at www.parcel2go.com/international-courier-service.aspx.
