Steve Smith – Beaminster Post Office’s Mobile Service

It will be a year next month that the Post Office van started visiting the Comrades Hall car park every Monday 12.15-1.15pm and on Thursday mornings at 9.15-10.45.

As there is much more to the internet than social media, the editor felt it proper to share Steve’s video which he posted on Facebook yesterday for visitors to the website who do not use social media…

A Huge Thank you to Steve and his team at Beaminster Post Office who have all been committed from day one to keep a Post Office service going for all of the communities they serve. 🙂

Broadwindsor Coffee Club News

The new service times for Broadwindsor Post Office are:

Mondays 12.15 – 1.15pm &
Thursdays 9.15 – 10.45am

The P.O. mobile van is here for a shorter time than we have been used to and every effort is being made for the the new Post Office change to run smoothly. Please, during this transition period, patience and cooperation is required at times but customers can be assured that no one has to wait outside in the wet/cold… Seating and warmth is available in the Comrades Hall Foyer, with you looking after your turn. This will also help with establishing a queuing system at very busy times.
To coincide with the new hours, you’ll also have the opportunity to enjoy fresh coffee or tea and the chance for a chat in in the warmth of the Servery inside Comrades Hall on:

Mondays from 11.00am to 1.30pm &
Thursdays from 9.00 am to 11.00am

A date for your diary: Monday, December 18^th– there will be mulled wine, sausage rolls, mince pies, etc. to celebrate the Christmas season along with a raffle for a hamper. The Comrades Hall 100 Club December draw will also be held that morning.

More Volunteers are needed to keep this social aspect around the PO visit going by manning a coffee pot and chatting for an hour or two! Please come along and offer your help 🙂

Do come along and support the Coffee Club and Post Office, this is a valuable service we need to maintain for the benefit of the village.

Thank you 🙂

The NHS recommends keeping all babies under six months out of direct sunlight, and older infants should be kept out of the sun as much as possible, particularly between 11:00hrs and 15:00hrs.
They should be kept in the shade or under a sunshade if they’re in a buggy or pushchair.

Donation To Post Office Users Group

Jacqui Sewell has donated a Buffalo Boiling Water Dispenser to the Post Office Users Group at Broadwindsor’s Comrades Hall. This will save the volunteers repeatedly boiling kettles.

Before the pandemic, the Group offered regular teas and coffees when the Outreach Post Office services were there Tuesday and Friday mornings. Jacqui Sewell will be offering drinks when she is there next Tuesday, 19th October.

Photographed with Jacqui are Val & Colin Lawrence from Burstock who timed it right this morning to test it out and to enjoy a cuppa and a chat.
