IT IS with much regret and sadness that after serving the community for 23 years, Mere Post Office and Village Store will be closing, because unfortunately we cannot survive in the current economic climate.

The Post Office will close on October 29, and the shop on November 12.

The Post Office is doing their best to relocate this office as an “outreach office” to enable postal services to continue on a part-time basis.

We would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all of our loyal customers and many friends that have supported us and for keeping us here for so long.
