Additional Information

The local community meet in local places , a post office Que is one of those! We see the same people behind the counter. The elderly recognise them and feel safe ! It’s a passport office too for mums to get photos done and fast tracked and so much more! Everyone will have to go into the city for a post office . Not good for the environment

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Decisions about closing individual post offices are a decision for the Post Office.

The Government set the minimum access criteria which states that 99% of the UK population are required to be within three miles of their nearest Post Office outlet.

You could start a petition to change that requirement, if that's what you'd like.
