Dordon B78 1TQ - 229458

Overview

We are proposing to move the above Post Office branch to a new location – Tamworth Co-Operative Foodstore, Whitehouse Road, Dordon, Tamworth, B78 1QE, (formally known as Cuckoo’s Rest Public House), where it will continue to operate as one of our local model style branches. 

Why are we moving?

As you will be aware, our partners and agents operate the Post Office branches alongside their private retail business, and it is important that they make the very best use of their resources to ensure future sustainability of both their business and the Post Office service. In this case, our partner has identified an opportunity to move this branch into a spacious, brighter and more modern premises.

The new premises which are currently empty, will undergo a full refurbishment to incorporate  Tamworth Co-Operative Foodstore and Dordon Post Office. Our multiples partners firmly believes that the move will help secure continued access to Post Office services locally, as well as supporting the viability of their business.

Our priority is to safeguard Post Office services to the local community in the longer term. The relocation of Dordon Post Office will enable us to maintain a Post Office service to our customers in the local community.

Your new Post Office branch

Customers would access Post Office services at a low-screened, open-plan, modern serving point that’s part of the retail counter. Working with the postmaster, we’d adapt the current store layout, fixtures and fittings to accommodate the Post Office till if needed. The branch will continue to offer the same Post Office products and services and the opening hours would remain the same.

Why your views matter

We’re carrying out a local public consultation and we’d like your views on the proposal. We welcome feedback and comments that can help inform our plans.

What happens next

Thank you for considering our proposal. We will take into account any information and feedback we receive as we finalise our plans for the new branch.
