Can you save your local Post Office?

With Post Office closures in the news again (though strangely none of the Post Offices in the Palace of Westminster are facing the axe…) I’ve seen a few people ask, “but is it worth campaigning against the closure of my local Post Office? Don’t closures always go ahead?”

So here’s a reminder of why campaigning is worthwhile and how you can save a Post Office:

AGAINST all odds, defiant campaigners have helped save the Connaught Road Post Office in Harborough from being axed.

A leaked document seen by The Mail revealed Post Office bosses were to announce at 10am on Friday that the branch had been given a reprieve.

Never-say-die protesters from across Harborough have campaigned for months to convince them that the popular Connaught Road branch should be saved. [Harborough Mail]
