The post office in Darnall only reopened in August 2010, with financial help from local councillors and the Key Fund Yorkshire. The post office in Darnall had been closed for almost a year prior to this before it reopened.
Neil Bishop, the subpostmaster
for
Darnall Post Office, said: 'We're delighted to have won this major
award. It's a recognition of the tremendous work done by our staff and
the warm welcome they give to our customers.'
Manager
Gillian Jackson, who attended the award ceremony with her colleague
Donna Coleman, said: 'It was really exciting. We were shaking when we
went up to collect the award.'
Chair
of the Forum Sylvia Hamilton said, 'We still need more local people to
come and make use of our award winning services if we're to ensure that
there is always going to be a post office in Darnall. At least customers
are assured of a really high standard of service.'
