BANWELL’S subpostmistress and parish council chairman teamed up to cut the ribbon on the village’s new-look Post Office last week.

Achala Jadav and Cllr Angela Haden did the honours at the new branch, which boasts extended opening hours and a new look after moving to new premises in West Street.

Subpostmistress Mrs Jadav said: “We are delighted to be able to offer Post Office services, which are essential to the local community.

“We have seen customer numbers increase in our store and people are really pleased that we have taken on the service.”
