Many of us have just heard the news about the proposed closure of Lloyds Bank in Old Town.
It's yet another reminder of the fact that important local services like banking and pharmacy services must be preserved.
I’m already working very hard to try and make sure that a Pharmacy reopens in Old Town for residents. And I'd like to do the same for banking.
I think that we need a Hub, where residents of any bank can use banking facilities locally, in a one stop shop.
I think now is the time for that sort of work to begin, and I'd love to be able to do that with residents in the months ahead, if re-elected on July 4th.”
