Fernbank Road Post Office opens at a new location with longer hours.

The Post Office has moved to 1 Warren Road in Ascot as of yesterday (December 3) and is open for seven days a week.

It is a new-style local branch with Post Office services provided from an open-plan counter alongside the retail counter offering significantly extended opening hours.

Opening hours are Monday to Saturday: 7am – 10pm; Sunday: 8am - 9pm.

Services include bill payment, cash withdrawals, postage, returns, home shopping collections and foreign currency.

Samantha Coe, Post Office Area Network Change Manager, said: “We are making it easier for customers to get their cash, send and collect their mail and do their banking because we know how important these services are to local residents.

“We are confident that this vibrant new-style Post Office at the heart of the local community will meet customer needs.

“This modernisation is part of a major investment programme, the largest in the history of the Post Office and will secure services for the future.”
