Royal Mail is stopping its Saturday post deliveries due to coronavirus. The 'temporary' measure will be in place from this weekend onwards, meaning that no letters or other post will be delivered over the weekend.
A statement on the Royal Mail website said: "Our postmen and postwomen are working very hard across the UK in challenging conditions. "As we said at the start of the coronavirus crisis, there will be some disruption to services.
Relevant factors include high levels of coronavirus-related absences and necessary social distancing measures. "We understand the importance of the postal service in keeping the UK connected at this time.
