THE Post Office has announced its Barnsley branch will be open for longer in the run-up to Christmas.
The branch, at Pitt Street, will be open from 8.30 am until 6pm Monday to Friday and 9am until 5.30pm on Saturdays.
Stewart Fox-Mills, head of marketing, said: "Christmas is an extremely busy time for many people and we want to make it as easy as possible for our customers by offering longer opening hours at Barnsley branch."
One of the new features on the Post Office’s online Christmas hub is a new service to help customers remember last posting dates for UK and worldwide mails online and through a simple and free reminder service.
Select the destinations you’d like a reminder for and the Post Office will send you an email and text message to help you get cards and gifts dispatched in plenty of time, avoiding a last-minute rush.
