Are post offices closed on royal mail strike days

In the UK, Royal Mail is responsible for delivering mail and parcels, and the Post Office Ltd is responsible for providing postal services and selling stamps. While Royal Mail is the one going on strike, the Post Office Ltd is a separate entity and is not directly affected by the strike.

However, the Post Office Ltd has announced that it will be closing some of its branches on strike days to minimize disruption to customers. This is because many Post Office branches are located within Royal Mail delivery offices, and the strike may affect the ability of staff to access these offices.

According to the Post Office Ltd, the following branches will be closed on strike days:

However, not all Post Office branches will be closed on strike days. The Post Office Ltd has said that it will keep as many branches open as possible to minimize disruption to customers. You can check the status of your local Post Office branch by visiting the Post Office website or by contacting them directly.

It's worth noting that while the Post Office Ltd is closing some branches on strike days, it will still be possible to access some services, such as cash machines and bill payment services, at open branches.
