Zeelo teams with Addison Lee

London’s largest private hire operator Addison Lee has partnered with coach platform Zeelo. The partnership is set to enable up to 10,000 vehicles to provide safe transport and reliable logistics to support hospitals and healthcare workers in London through the coronavirus outbreak.

Zeelo is offering dedicated coach services for key workers with social distancing measures in place, as well as extra levels of sanitisation, use of PPE and a no-contact policy to allow hospitals and healthcare providers to give their workers a safe alternative to public transport. Addison Lee is offering reduced rate private car rides to and from all London hospitals using promotional codes. In addition to this, Addison Lee’s on-demand courier fleet of 600 vehicles has been made available to support the movement of healthcare supplies across London. The joint offering can be deployed within 24 hours to support urgent requirements.

Zeelo CEO, Sam Ryan, said: “Healthcare, food, utility and critical logistics staff, now more than ever need a safe, stress and risk-free way to get to and from work to ensure they can relax and overcome fatigue before heading back to the front line. We are here to help where we can and support to oversee the operations of the services to these key industries so their professionals can focus on the most important job at hand during this challenging time.”
