Local Post Offices Under Threat

 Yesterday's list of potential closures includes Cricklewood, Kilburn, Harlesden and Kingsbury.


The fightback has started with Cricklewood:

Cllr Tariq Dar on Next Door:

Cricklewood post office is at risk. The potential closure of Cricklewood Post Office has spurred strong and immediate opposition among local councils and residents. Representatives from the Tri-Borough areas, Brent, Barnet, and Camden, along with Cricklewood residents, are forming a dedicated campaign group to advocate for the post office’s continued operation at Cricklewood Broadway. 

Meetings are already underway to discuss campaign strategies, including drafting letters to Post Office executives and organizing a public awareness effort. This coordinated response emphasizes the community’s reliance on the post office for essential services and underscores a commitment to keep it accessible. Community members are encouraged to stay engaged and support upcoming initiatives, as further details will be shared soon on the campaign’s progress.

 This proactive approach draws on past successes in defending the post office and reflects a unified stance against closures that could impact vulnerable groups and local businesses. Watch for updates, and consider joining the campaign to support this vital effort.
