Hireacamera has launched a nationwide Click & Collect service for photographers across the UK.
The service has been announced off the back of the success of its London version based at Cherryduck Studios.
The renting scheme is in partnership with the London Camera Exchange to place Click & Collect points in selected LCE shops across the UK.
Hireacamera managing director Guy Thatcher said: “We have been very pleased with the response to our Click & Collect offering at Cherryduck Studios, so the decision to roll it out nationwide was an easy one. And LCE are the ideal partners.”
The first shops involved with the new service are Cheltenham, Chichester, Newcastle, Norwich, Nottingham and Winchester. Cherryduck Studios in London will continue to function as the London base.
The company has also announced an additional Click & Collect point at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire.
