New Post Office opens in Bainsford

Bainsford Post Office opened within Bainsford Convenience Store on Main Street on Wednesday.

It is the first time the community has had a local branch since the previous one closed in Grahams Road back in December 2017.

The new branch will offer 56 hours of service a week, opening from 9am to 5pm, Monday to Sunday.

The new Postmaster is Mr Ramanathas Tharmarajah.

Robert Sharp, Post Office network provision lead, said: “We are delighted to have restored a Post Office to this area as we know how important a Post Office is to a community.

"The branch’s daily opening will make it very convenient for customers to visit.”
