Though their employer went into receivership earlier this week, some kind Fastway couriers have organised a drop-off on Saturday to ensure that at least some customers in Cork receive parcels they are waiting on.

On Wednesday, Fastway Couriers announced it would be entering receivership, leading to fears that up to 300 direct jobs will be impacted, as well as hundreds of indirect jobs.
