Call to Bring Back Banking In Woodford

Bring Back Banking to Woodford!

I have written to the Chief Executive of LINK calling for urgent action to restore in-person banking services in Woodford. I am therefore pleased that he has now agreed to meet to discuss a new Banking Hub for Woodford, but this is only the first step.

Read the full letter on my Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1B81J8mdxE/?mibextid=wwXIfr 

The loss of face-to-face banking has been detrimental to our community. Older residents, vulnerable people, and local businesses depend on access to cash, deposit facilities, and in-person banking advice. 

We’ve done it before in North Chingford and now it’s time to do it in Woodford.

I will continue to push LINK, and if you support restoring banking provision in Woodford, please add your name to my petition and help strengthen our case for Woodford: https://www.iainduncansmith.org.uk/campaigns/bring-back-banking-woodford 

Together, we can secure the services our community needs.
