Overview
We will be moving this branch to a new location – D Cards Ltd, 97 Victoria Road, Ferndown, BH22 9HU.
Why are we moving?
As you may be aware, this branch has been operated on our behalf by a temporary agent. Whilst this arrangement has enabled us to maintain access to Post Office services to our customers in the area, this does mean that the current service is liable to close at short notice and for some time now we have been actively seeking a more secure solution that would enable us to retain services locally into the longer term.
Your new Post Office branch
Customers would access Post Office services in a modern, open-plan environment alongside the operator’s retail. Working with the postmaster, we’d adapt the current store layout, fixtures and fittings to accommodate the Post Office. It will be in a dedicated area of the store with one screened and one open-plan positions. The full range of Post Office products and services would be available. We’d also add a low-screened, modern Post Office till at the retail counter offering most Post Office products and services, so customers can access their Post Office when it’s convenient. Customer satisfaction with these style of branches stands at 95 per cent.
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.
