The NFSP said: “This will doubtless be disappointing to HSBC’s customers in Worksop, Bridge Street.
“Post offices are proving vital to retaining people’s and businesses' access to cash as the banks continue to desert the high street in order to cut costs and increase their profits.
“Every post office plays a vital role within the heart of the local community.
“Post offices provide a reliable and essential service which has continued at a high standard across the whole of the UK throughout the pandemic.”
