This is another example of the retreat of local Royal Mail services and inconveniencing the general public further by making us travel to another Borough to reclaim mail. I have cause to visit this office regularly, particularly on a Saturday morning and it's location is easy to reach from my home. Please don't close it.

This is an essential service for local residents.

Ridiculous to ask people to travel out of their borough to get post and parcels. Outrageous suggestion.How does this benefit all the people and businesses that need a local post depot? I totally support this petition.

Please don't close our post office! It's incredibly handy. Not everyone has a car and the bus route isnt as regular as it might be.

I have ALWAYS had a great service from this depot and the people that work there. Don't close this depot, it's far, far better than most - and why should we travel miles to get our postage?

Why would we take away such an invaluable local service, with the alternative being a collection office 3 miles away - which is next to no use for the elderly or is those with young children. Wake up, people!! We need these local services, otherwise what becomes of the community? RESIST!

It's a local, public service which if moved will not be local and will require 2 buses to collect from

Best bunch of nice people there and would be so inconvenient to have to travel to Anerley as this office is so close to us. And what about the fab car junkyard nearby, or the industrial estate right next to the sorting office? Will people want that? Let the sorting office stay where it is.

It's not easy to get from West Norwood to Anerley.West Norwood seems as if it's being stripped of it's basic services.

I regularly use this office, which is very convenient and local. The staff are very efficient. I'm against the proposed move as it's location is to far away.

I do not agree with the post offices closer due to it being the closest post office to my house. I am also against it because if it gets moved it will be far away from my house.

I am against this idea because it will be to far away from my residence and also I will have to travel far away to be able to get my deliveries.

The sorting office provides a service which is at the centre of a large local community. Having to collect parcels from Anerley, outside the upper Norwood area, will be very inconvenient especially for the many many people who don't have transport, including older people and families on low incomes. And for others it will encourage more car use, when before people could walk to collect while shopping.

Logistically its madness! Common sense must prevail at some point in the process. The service provided is vital to the local area.

Moving the West Norwood sorting office to Anerley is ridiculous. It's a busy sorting office providing a very useful service to local residents. Anerley is miles away up a very steep hill, and we would have to pass the Crystal Palace sorting office to get there!! This is simply unworkable. All you'll achieve is the headache of uncollected parcels.

it's vital for me & so many others to have somewhere within walking distance to collect parcels from
