Residents in Iffley and Rose Hill in the south of Oxford will be delighted that a brand new Post Office branch will open at Midcounties Co-op, 74 Rose Hill, Oxford, OX4 4HS, on Thursday 6 June at 1pm.

This new branch will offer customers a wide range of Post Office services, from posting letters and parcels to collecting and returning online shopping items. Customers can also take advantage of a wide range of banking services including cash withdrawals and balance enquiries for customers of all the main UK banks. Car tax renewal, passport check and send, on demand and pre-order currencies and MoneyGram will also be available.

The new Post Office services will be available: Monday – Friday: 9am – 5.30pm; Saturday: 9am – 2pm. This will offer customers 47 hours and 30 minutes of Post Office service a week, making it very convenient for customers to visit.

The new branch aims to offer even more convenience to Post Office customers by extending the availability of Post Offices services in the area.

The service will be one of the local style branches with a low-screened, open-plan Post Office service point carefully integrated into the retail counter.
