AO.com announces delivery service for frontline NHS workers

Online electricals retailer AO.com has launched free delivery and free timeslots for those working on the frontline in the NHS during the coronavirus outbreak.

“We’re all hugely grateful to the NHS frontline workers and this new service is just one of the ways that everyone in AO.com can show their appreciation,” says MD David Lawson.

“We know that shifts mean timing is everything with a delivery so this is designed to make it safe, hassle free and easier for these frontline NHS workers to get their electricals at home at a time to suit their working pattern, and ultimately help them do what they do best.”

“Now more than ever, our products such as fridges, freezers, washing machines, cookers and TVs are essential for those who need to store food safely, provide clean clothes, hot nutritious meals and family entertainment.”

The pureplay is also offering a 10% discount on personal purchases for NHS keyworkers and has been donating products via smaller requests to hospitals and medical units across the UK.
