Dear Customer

Headington Post Office®
144 London Road, Headington, Oxford, OX3 9EB

Proposed move to new premises & branch modernisation

I’m writing to let you know that we are proposing, with the Postmaster’s agreement to move the above Post Office branch to a new location – Midcounties Co-operative, 152 London Road, Headington, Oxford, OX3 9ED. I’m pleased to tell you that, if the move goes ahead, subject to consultation it will change to one of our new main style branches.

This change is part of a major programme of modernisation taking place across the Post Office network, the largest in the history of Post Office Ltd. The Programme is underpinned by Government investment and will see up to 8,000 branches modernised and additional investment in over 3,000 community and outreach branches.

What will this mean for customers?

•   A modern open plan branch in newly refurbished premises
•   Longer opening hours
•   The same products and services you’re used to
•   Selected Post Office services will also be available at the retail counter during shop opening hours

We’re now starting a 6 week local public consultation and would like you to tell us what you think about the suitability of the proposed new location. Before we finalise our plans, we would really like to hear your views on the proposed location, particularly on the following areas:
