THE Post Office is cutting its opening hours for its branch in Whitchurch, with the town losing its seven day a week service.

The organisation has said that it is “making a small change to the opening times” affecting the service which is housed in the Tesco store in Winchester Street.

Currently the branch is open 8am to 8pm seven days a week, but from Sunday, September 29 these will reduce.

The Post Office will no longer open on Sundays and Saturday afternoon. It will also stop offering evening hours from 5.30pm to 8pm and will open at 9am each day.

This means the service will open from 9am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday, 9am to 12.30pm on Saturdays, and closed on Sundays.
