Commenting on the unplanned closure of the post office in Station Road, Kidwelly, Nia Griffith MP said:
“I was shocked to hear that Kidwelly post office has been closed down this week for an indefinite period.”
“Kidwelly is a town and needs its own full-time post office, and moreover it is some considerable distance from neighbouring post offices. I am therefore calling on Post Office Ltd to take immediate steps to provide a mobile post office service as a matter of utmost urgency, and to make a priority of finding a more permanent full-time solution as soon as possible.”
“It’s a busy post office and there are businesses and residents in Kidwelly who really need a post office here. I am sure that if the Post Office can identify appropriately qualified individuals to run the service, then we will be able to find a suitable location. There is huge community spirit in Kidwelly and I know people will want to help.”
