I'm sure there will be consultation etc etc with relevant interest groups, however at the end of the day physical banks and post offices are becoming less and less relevant to most people. Sadly, businesses can't continue to run if they are losing money. I'm heading towards eighty now, and most people I know who are my age go online, use smartphones, apps etc.. There are courses available if older people need help in getting to grips with - I was going to say new technology, but it's hardly new any more! I realise money is an issue for some people, but my understanding is that things like the state pension, job seekers allowance ( if it's still called that) etc are all now paid online. Forgive me if I'm wrong. So Post Offices are no longer used for that. And you can buy things like smart phones reconditioned, with a guarantee, if you can't afford a new one. And other couriers will pick up parcels, or you can post them at shops which have a sub post office, like the one in Forest Hill Road. And should anybody still be sending letters at extortionate prices, you can get stamps online 🤬 -

Like the banks, the post office is being allowed to get away with these closures. They could incorporate the promised ‘Banking Hubs’ that never materialise. Losing the Lordship Lane post office will really impact local vulnerable & elderly people especially. -
