Hi, hoping this is posted to correct forum, the local village post office (in a corner shop) is closing down , from what i understand it is due to not making enough revenue, and a centralised sorting office will be/is located in the nearest town, but a lot of the villagers are complaining that they wont have access, it has been mentioned that a van has been used in other nearby villages that comes by a certain number of times per week to allow people to post items.

Im just curious as to what other alternatives have been implemented in other locations where this is happening?
