HOME delivery will be available from Marks & Spencer Westquay from today.

Customers can order a range of about 170 M&S food and household items through Deliveroo.

The retailer has kept the food sections of its stores, including Westquay, Hedge End and and the new Shirley store, open during the coronavirus pandemic, but the delivery service will make its products available more widely to those confined to their homes.

Deliveroo has added 20 stores in city and town locations and is providing a more extensive range of goods for delivery.

The service, which costs £4.99, is available from 142 M&S outlets across the country.

M&S announced last year that it would go into partnership with Ocado from September this year, replacing the online grocer's existing deal with Waitrose.

Under the deal, it is set to buy a 50 per cent share of Ocado's retail business for £750m.

Ocado will also continue to supply its own-label products and big-name branded goods.
