The National Federation of SubPostmasters
has launched a national petition which calls upon the Government to reverse
its decision to end support for the Post Office Card Account.
It is feared that the withdrawal of the card account will force the closure
of thousands of Post Offices across the country, which in turn will undermine
communities across Britain and adversely affect the wellbeing of many individuals,
particularly those in vulnerable or finanically excluded groups.
Acomb Post Office is a valuable resource not only to its immediate community,
but also to many people from surrounding communities.
Other PO services which will be withdrawn will
include renewal of television licences.
Make sure you pop into the Post Office and sign the petition.
Our Post Office under threat - ACT NOW!
