Call for new 'banking hub' in Plymstock
Today I raised the closure of Plymstock's Post Office with a Department for Business and Trade Minister, asking what he is doing to ensure that sustainable, joint Post Offices and banking services can replace closing branches.
The closure of Lloyds' Plymstock branch, announced yesterday, removes the last cashpoint in the centre of Plymstock and makes the absence of its Post Office even more concerning.
I am grateful for the Minister's constructive response, offering to challenge the Post Office on its closure in Plymstock. I will take him up on this offer and push for the provision of essential in-person cash and banking services in Plymstock.
