Watch: Liverpool’s Alpha Taxis supports the city through lockdown

Alpha Taxis employs over 1300 drivers and is one of the largest private hire taxi companies in the UK.

Throughout the pandemic it has evolved to not only create a new delivery service for the city in Alpha Grab, but also supporting the local community and organisations like the Big Help Project, the LFC Foundation, Fans Supporting Foodbanks and Everton in the Community. 

At Christmas the firm raised over £3000 and match funded the donations to give support to charities across the city whilst also using its cars to transport food donations to food banks throughout 2020 and into 2021.

We spoke to Steven McKinlay who gave us an insight into life at a taxi company during the crisis and also let us know how the coronavirus has shaped their business for the better. Watch the video above.
