New partnership set to ‘turbocharge the test and treat health journey’ for Londoners

With NHS waiting lists still considerable post-pandemic and face-to-face GP appointments hard to come by, two startups have joined forces to help change the face of at-home medical testing.

Newfoundland, a provider of at-home, self-diagnostic tests in the UK, and Zapp, London’s leading 24/7 premium convenience delivery app, have announced a new partnership designed to ’turbocharge the test and treat health journey; for millions of Brits, all from the comfort of their own home.

Customers can now quickly and conveniently test for various illnesses and diseases, all while knowing that Zapp has them covered with a wide range of personal health and hygiene products, over-the-counter medicines, and everyday essentials available for delivery within minutes, 24/7.

Co-founder of Newfoundland, Frederick Manduca, commented: “One of our key aims when we started Newfoundland, was to provide the public with an opportunity to take their health into their own hands, as well as helping to alleviate pressure on the NHS and simplifying the entire diagnostic process for patients themselves.

“We’re excited to be partnering with such an innovative brand like Zapp, as they too are passionate about making the consumer purchasing experience as convenient as possible.

“And with their rapid delivery within minutes, 24/7, we know our customers in the Capital will now find it easier than ever to order a Newfoundland test, be proactive about their own health and potentially catch a condition before it develops into an issue.”

Steve O’Hear, SVP of Strategy at Zapp, added: “We are excited to announce our new partnership with Newfoundland, the leader in at-home self-diagnostic testing. Zapp’s history as the first rapid delivery company to stock Covid-19 tests and launch a dedicated Period Store demonstrates our dedication to delivering for our customers.

“With this new partnership, we’re extending the health journey for Londoners, offering rapid access to health tests and everyday essentials, all from the comfort of their homes, with delivery in minutes, 24/7.”
