SANDOWN Post Office is inviting customers to comment on its planned relocation.

The post office plans to move to Bestway Retail Ltd, Avenue Road, as the lease of the current premises is due to expire.

A spokesperson from the post office said: "We hope to relocate soon after the public consultation.

"Working with the postmaster, we'd adapt the current store layout, fixtures and fittings to accommodate the post office."

The move will mean the post office will be open seven days a week in a modern retail environment.

Customers and interested parties are invited to give their comments on the move during a six week public consultation period.

The spokesperson said: "We're looking for feedback about accessibility, local community issues and anything we can do to make life easier for our customers."
