Consultation On Changes To Post Office Network - Post Office Ltd commences consultation on Wilkin branch in the Herefordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands area
11/11/2008
Post Office Ltd recently confirmed decisions reached following local public consultation into its Herefordshire Worcestershire and the West Midlands area plan. As a result of the feedback received, Post Office Ltd amended its original proposal and decided not to proceed with the closure of The Butts branch.
In order to ensure that the planned future network can be supported by the available funding from Government and meets the criteria it has set, including the requirement that no part of the UK is advantaged or disadvantaged relative to other areas, Post Office Ltd is now proposing the permanent closure of Wilkin branch in Brownhills. A six week public consultation on this new proposal begins today (11 November 2008) and will conclude on 22 December.
In proposing this branch for closure, Post Office Ltd has taken into account that customers would be able to access Post Office® services from nearby branches.
Details of the area plan proposal and a booklet containing full details of the decisions relating to the changes to the network in the Herefordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands area are available on the Post Office Ltd website www.postoffice.co.uk/networkchange or by contacting the address below.
Any changes to the network that are made under the programme are implemented in accordance with a code of practice that has been agreed with consumer body Postwatch.
During local public consultation Post Office customers and their representatives are invited to express their views by writing to Mark Partington, Network Development Manager C/o National Consultation Team, FREEPOST CONSULTATION TEAM, by emailing : consultation@postoffice.co.uk or by calling the Post Office Ltd Customer Helpline on: 08457 22 33 44.

Public consultation commences on new proposal for Trekenner
Cornwall Area Plan - Public consultation commences on new proposal for Trekenner
10/02/2009
Post Office Ltd today (10 February) launched a six-week consultation on the proposed outreach service to replace Trekenner Post Office in Lezant.
Post Office Ltd now proposes a home outreach service which would allow customers in the community, who register for the service, to order Post Office products and services to be delivered direct to their home or via a local drop in session at a set location and time. This replaces the original proposal which was for a mobile outreach service to serve Lezant.
The proposal follows the decision by Post Office Ltd to close the existing Trekenner branch and introduce an outreach service under its Cornwall area plan, which was concluded earlier this year. The public consultation into the new proposal begins today (February 10) and ends on 23 March 2009.
A range of products and services would continue to be available through the proposed home post office service. Customers could collect benefits in cash using our banking services or Post Office® card account.
Tim Nickolls, Network Development Manager for Cornwall said: "We welcome feedback from the local community during the six week consultation and look forward to receiving comments on the revised outreach service that is proposed."
Submissions can be made during the consultation by post to the National Consultation Team, Post Office Ltd, FREEPOST CONSULTATION TEAM (no stamp is required) or by email to consultation@postoffice.co.uk

In May 2007, following a national public consultation, the UK Government announced a range of proposed measures to modernise and reshape the network of Post Office® branches and put it on a more stable footing for the future.
Post Office Ltd has now commenced a Network Change Programme to implement the measures prescribed by the Government. Under the plan, 2500 branches across the UK will close and 500 outreach models will be introduced.
Each Area Plan proposal supports the achievement of the national accessibility criteria set by the UK Government.
The UK Government criteria:
Nationally:
• 99% of the UK population to be within 3 miles and 90% of the population to be within 1 mile of their nearest Post Office® branch.
• 99% of the total population in deprived urban (deprived urban - the most disadvantaged urban parts of the UK based on the Indices of Multiple Deprivation - top 15% Super Output Area in England, 15% of Data Zones in Scotland and 30% of Super Output Areas in Wales and Northern Ireland) areas across the UK to be within 1 mile of their nearest Post Office® branch.
• 95% of the total urban (urban - a community with 10,000 or more inhabitants in a continuous built up area) population across the UK to be within 1 mile of their nearest Post Office® branch.
• 95% of the total rural (rural - a community not covered by the definition of urban above) population across the UK to be within 3 miles of their nearest Post Office® branch.
• In addition for each individual postcode district 95% of the population of the postcode district to be within 6 miles of their nearest Post Office® branch.
