Sharing the same message with followers over on Instagram, the Chimac team later added:
"These men and women have got us, and you, through the last 10 months of madness - they work incredibly hard and are so often not treated with the respect the deserve.
"We will be switching off Deliveroo from 6pm - 8pm tonight as a demonstration of our solidarity."
With increased demand for the service during lockdown, drivers are hoping that the strike will help to highlight the importance of their work.
