Therese is asking for an urgent meeting with the Post Office Minister, Kevin Hollinrake and Post Office Executives following the news that Post Office Ltd has decided to unilaterally close the Kelsale outreach service and make changes to the wider network. Including transferring the Snape, Yoxford, Wangford and Walberswick outreach services to a mobile van operating from Ipswich rather than Saxmundham. The changes coincide with the retirement of the Saxmundham Subpostmaster, but his successor has already committed to continuing the outreach services.
Therese said: “These changes are completely unacceptable and I’m concerned about the reduction in service. I’m also surprised that they will not allow another willing sub postmaster to take on the work. Whilst a mobile van is better than nothing, I want to push back on these proposals and challenge the Post Office to think again.”
