Overview

We are delighted to let you know that following the temporary closure of Claverley Post Office, we will be restoring Post Office services to the community with the introduction of a permanent Hosted Outreach service.

Your new Post Office service

Since the closure of the above service we have continued to work to identify a solution to restore services to the local community.

This new Hosted Outreach Post Office service in will operate from within The Crown Inn, High Street, Claverley, Wolverhampton, WV5 7DU.

 

Following the temporary closure of Cookley Post Office, we will also be restoring Post Office services to the community, with the introduction of a temporary Hosted Outreach service, whilst we continue to seek a permanent solution. This new temporary Post Office service will operate from within the Meeting Room 1, Cookley Village Hall, Lea Lane, Cookley, Kidderminster, DY10 3RH.

To accommodate the new Hosted Outreach Post Office services in Claverley and Cookley, we have made some minor changes to the current opening hours of the Post Office service at Alveley.

We are pleased to inform you that the Postmaster from Potter’s Cross Post Office currently operates an Outreach service in the area and is willing to extend the Post Office services to the above communities.

We constantly monitor the number of customers using Post Office services and we are confident that the planned changes will be welcomed by our customers in the local communities. 

We are keen to restore services to this community as soon as possible so we are now progressing with these plans. However, we would welcome suggestions about specific aspects of the change such as, what you think about the suitability of the new location, access arrangements and the planned opening hours.

What happens next

Thank you for your support in restoring the Post Office service in Claverley and Cookley.
