Having been informed that Stapleford Post Office is set to close on Tuesday 19th July I have contacted the Post Office Head Office and asked if they can confirm this.
Below is the reply I have been sent.
Dear Cllr MacRae
Unfortunately, it is the case that the current temporary operator at Stapleford has resigned. We are currently looking for a replacement however it is likely the branch will close on the 19th July.
I will continue to look for a permanent solution that provides Post Office services to Stapleford
Please let me know if you need anything further.
Thanks
