Mary was delighted to be informed of the three year support package for Postmasters.

Our post offices and the people who run them are such an important part of our community and the commitment shown by our Postmasters, particularly in recent years during Covid-19 has been invaluable to communities all over Ireland.

An Post will continue to improve their services through 4 Key Pillars:

• Community Banking for all – diversifying and growing financial services products for consumers and SMEs through An Post Money, Travel Money, partnerships with Bank of Ireland and AIB and a range of State Savings products
