Stop Windsor Post office closure

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Windsor Post office is part of historic Windsor, tourists often going there after visiting the castle. It is a key lifeline for many Windsor residents. Windsor castle appears on stamps and it is the home to our Royal family. Closing this Post office without considering other options is a mistake.
This is a lifeline for many Windsor residents - there is only one bank open in the whole town
People come into town to go to the Post office - reducing footfall will add to shop closures and hence is very short sighted
Reduced numbers of tourists visiting the high st
There are other options to consider such as Royal support or take over by the local community
