On the recent news of the Denbigh Branch of Halifax closing on 4th December 2023, Local Member of the Senedd for Vale of Clwyd, Gareth Davies said, “obviously I’m disappointed to hear the news of Halifax leaving in Denbigh in December after many decades being a presence in the Town, and this being in addition to the closure of HSBC in August, I feel this is another blow to Denbigh and peoples access to cash in rural areas where some people struggle getting to Mold or Rhyl to do their banking.”
Gareth went onto say, “it’s vital that the remaining Building Society and Post Office in Denbigh continue providing banking facilities and access to cash for local people in the long term, so there is a reliable service for the future. I’ve recently had some positive meetings with the Post Office both in the Senedd and in the constituency about maximising people’s access to cash and face to face banking facilities and look forward to meeting with the Principality Building Society in the coming weeks to discuss their future banking provisions in light of recent closures in Denbigh.”
