ROSS-ON-WYE post delivery welcomed Anthea McIntyre MEP who gave the team an extra pair of hands in the run-up to Christmas.

Ms McIntyre was shown around by delivery office manager, Paul Willetts, and introduced to the postmen and women who are working hard sorting and delivering mail.

She said: "It was great to meet postmen and women at Royal Mail's Ross-on-Wye delivery office and see first-hand just how much effort they put into delivering for people at this time of year.

"Our postal workers do such an important job at this time of year and help to deliver Christmas for many people and families in our area. I would like to thank them for their efforts and wish them all the best over the busy festive period."

Paul added: "Our postmen and women are working extremely hard to deliver Christmas cards, letters and parcels to people across Ross-on-Wye. We are grateful that Anthea visited the office to see our operation and to support the team during our busiest time of year.

"We'd like to remind our customers to post early so that friends and family have longer to enjoy their Christmas greetings."
