Starship Technologies has waivered its delivery fee for NHS workers across the city.

The company says: "As we enter another lockdown, our little robots wanted to let you know that they're fully prepared and ready to deliver, day and night. We're also extending our support to the NHS once again, with free deliveries to NHS workers.

"Starship is incredibly proud to serve this cherished community and we're determined to make life easier for you during this challenging time. Our fleet is ready. We’ve done this before and we'll do it again. Be strong and stay in touch."

Milton Keynes currently has the 'world's largest autonomous robot fleet' as the company has been working on expanding its delivery area across the city.
