Overview

We are proposing to re-open the above Post Office branch at a new location – Blaydon Convenience Store, 3 Harriet Street, Blaydon-On-Tyne, NE21 4DE and change it to one of our new local style branches. This branch closed temporarily in August 2015 following the withdrawal of premises for Post Office use.  We are now in a position to restore a service to our customers in the local community and the establishment of a new local style branch presents the best possible solution in the area.  

We’re proposing this move as part of the ongoing modernisation of our branch network. Over the last five years we have transformed over 7,500 branches so more customers can access Post Office products and services in a modern and friendly environment, often over longer hours including Sundays. We are confident that introducing a local style branch alongside a successful retail store is the most effective way to safeguard sustainable Post Office services in the Blaydon-On-Tyne community into the future.
