5th of February 2025

Adrian Ramsay MP welcomes today’s news that a new Post Office will open in the Eye this spring, after the previous office closed more than two years ago and left residents without this vital service.  District Councillor Lucy Elkin has worked to restore the post office service as soon as possible. 

Adrian, speaking after learning the news, said 

“I'm delighted that, following a lot of behind-the-scenes work from Green Councillor Lucy Elkin, Eye will soon have a permanent post office, located in a new convenience store. For far too long, residents have been left without this vital service since the previous post office closed over 2 years ago. With no bank in the town, having a post office is crucial for businesses and residents alike. In Parliament, I have been pushing the need for local post offices to be restored, and I congratulate Lucy, who has worked hard to restore the Eye post office service, assisting local postmaster Minesh Patel in finding a suitable location in the town. I wish Minesh, who already runs the post office in Mendlesham, all the best with this new venture and look forward to visiting.”
