THE future of rural Post Office stores could be secured after the company announced details of a £20m community branch fund.
Sub-postmasters of branches in remote communities will have the opportunity to make a case for funding to support the growth and sustainability of their business.
The branch fund is part of the Government’s £640m commitment to securing the future of the Post Office.
