COUNTY NATWEST BRANCHES TO SHUT THIS YEAR

- By TOM MACK

A BANKING hub will be created in Ashby after NatWest confirmed a series of closures in the county.

A location has yet to be decided for the new hub, which will be run by cash machine network Link and the Post Office and is expected to be open by June next year.

Customers of any of the major banks will be able to withdraw and deposit money during opening hours and each of the major banks will take it in turns to have representatives in the building.
