A number of stores in Trafalgar Square are slowly beginning to trade again, albeit without opening their doors.
After four weeks of being the only store open, Countdown will be joined by The Warehouse, Paper Plus, 2degrees, Shake Shed and Technofix who are all operating in a contactless capacity.
Countdown will resume as normal, with the store open 7am to 8am for essential workers and open from 8am-10pm for the general public.
The Warehouse are operating under click and collect, with the store open from 9am-5pm.
Once a customer has placed an order, they will receive an email regarding pick up and protocols. People are asked to access from the underground carpark and come up the ramp to their collection area.
