Westmorland and Lonsdale
I rise to present a petition in the name of 1,027 of my Westmorland and Lonsdale constituents. They are deeply concerned, as am I, that Royal Mail is proposing to close the Sedbergh delivery office in Sedbergh. Not only is that a serious problem and a loss of service to that part of the dales, but it undermines the financial package that makes sure that Sedbergh post office can survive and thrive. The closure of Sedbergh post office would lead to the outreach services at Barbon, Endmoor and Dent also closing.
