CitySprint has been appointed same-day courier provider for Ashtons Hospital Pharmacy.

It will deliver time-critical pharmaceutical goods to independent hospitals across the country as part of the deal.

The partnership comes after the courier carried out urgent deliveries for the Brighton-based firm on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Chris Burrell, marketing manager at Ashtons, says: "CitySprint's response times are excellent, which is absolutely essential given the nature of the deliveries, and their couriers are always professional, courteous and smartly uniformed."
