For the first time in our 193-year history of serving the capital, the Evening Standard print edition is being delivered direct to homes across parts of Zones 2 and 3.

This will allow readers who are working from home the chance to continue getting a copy of the paper that is such an important part of their daily routines.

Initially the new Home Delivery Service will be focused on 26 residential neighbourhoods including Hampstead, Brixton, Islington, Camden, Greenwich, Clapham, Fulham, Hammersmith and Shoreditch.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to respond to requests to deliver to specific addresses but our teams will do their best to get the paper to as many readers as possible.

Our fleet of vans will drop copies of the paper to local door-by-door delivery teams.

We expect the papers to be delivered from mid-afternoon to early evening. Our drivers will drop copies at major supermarkets so that readers who we cannot initially reach at home can still get a copy.

In addition, we will continue to distribute the newspaper at some of the most-used Tube and rail stations for those vital key workers who are still commuting into central London.

We expect the home delivery service to evolve over the first few weeks and will adjust according to demand and any new government advice.

As well as getting copies to readers it allows us to take hundreds of merchandising staff from the streets of London where they are in close contact with the public and re-deploy them into a Home Delivery network that reduces contact.

Public Health England says that there’s “no good evidence that there is any elevated risk associated with receiving post or packages”.

Our priority is to get at least 500,000 copies of the Standard to our loyal readers every day so they can carry on accessing our leading coverage of the unfolding crisis.
