Skellow Post Office Closure

I’ve been informed that Skellow Post Office will be closing on Tuesday, 26th August 2025 at 12:30pm.

This is deeply concerning news. When I visited the branch last year and spoke with the Postmaster, it was clear just how vital this Post Office is to the daily lives of local residents, especially those who rely on it for essential services.

I’ve written to the Post Office to express my strong concerns about the closure and to highlight just how important this service is to our community.

The Post Office has assured me that they are working to minimise the period of closure and are currently exploring options to reinstate a local service as soon as possible. I will continue to press for updates and will keep you informed as soon as I hear more.
