The UK is fortunate to continue to have 11,500 post offices, providing all their original core services PLUS giving the British public and business access to cash withdrawal and deposit facilities.
Of course, post office counters alone cannot provide all the cash 50 million British adults want, but without those busy post office counters a growing number of communities would have no access to cash whatsoever.
Post offices have always been vital - and never more so than they are in 2023.
