The local community has backed an appeal to bring additional Post Office services back to Coulby Newham.

Currently only a local Post Office with limited services, staff and customers at the Parkway Shopping Centre in Middlesbrough are campaigning to make it a main Post Office, which would result in additional amenities including:

passport services,

identity checks

DVLA services.

Oversized International Parcels

Travel Insurance & Travel Money Cards

Current & Savings accounts

Local Councillors have also shown their support to the centre, including Janice Brunton Dobson. “Not only are the additional services a requirement for the local community, but we have to consider the impact on other local businesses in the Parkway Centre. The Parkway continues to grow it’s number of visitors with the footfall growing year on year and as the largest centre outside of Middlesbrough Town the Parkway warrants a Main Post Office. As the Executive Member for Learning and Skills I would hope that more staff would be employed as a result of gaining main post office status added Janice.
