A Foreign Office spokeswoman said:
We are doing everything we can to get British people in Wuhan safely back to the UK. A number of countries’ flights have been unable to take off as planned. We continue working urgently to organise a flight to the UK as soon as possible.
We remain in close contact with the Chinese authorities and conversations are ongoing at all levels.
