Post Office: ‘It will hit my business hard if the branch shuts’

Must read

In Birmingham, Kenneth Sunday says he relies heavily on his local post office, in order to sell trainers and clothing on Vinted.

“My local post office is very important to me, I use them every single week,” he told the BBC.

“It would be extremely difficult to deliver things without it, if it were to close because I use it post my stuff.”

His mother, he says, also relies on the branch, in order to send items to Nigeria.

“Without the one she uses now, we would have to make trips to another shop out of the area in order to use the post office service,” said Mr Sunday.

Tim Cartlidge, who lives in a small village in Staffordshire, said his community would be at a huge loss if the post office was lost.

“Without our local post office we would have to drive into town, which is about five miles away,” he said.
