THE post office in Studley is to get a modern new look and will open seven days a week.
The service, which remains in the Tesco Express, 33-35 Alcester Road, Studley, will re-launch at 1pm on Monday, February 13 and be open from 8am to 8pm Monday to Sunday.
The Post Office says the opening hours, which will increase by an extra 36 and half hours per week, will ensure the branch is much more convenient for users with more choice of times to visit, including on Sundays.
The branch will also remain open throughout the refurbishment.
It means residents and small business customers will be able to access a wide range of Post Office and mails services, including international parcels, special delivery, local collect and home shopping returns, make cash withdrawals from a Post Office Card Account, send funds abroad using Moneygram, pay bills, buy holiday money, get insurance, mortgages and savings and top up mobile phones.
Anne Clark, area manager, said: “We are making it easier for customers to get their cash, send and collect their mail and do their banking because we know how important these services are to local residents.
“We are confident that this vibrant new-style Post Office at the heart of the local community will meet customer needs. This modernisation is part of a major investment programme, the largest in the history of the Post Office.”
In the past year Studley has been hit by the closure of both HSBC bank and Lloyds Bank branches.
