Thorne Banking Hub location announced
A new Banking Hub is coming to Thorne. It will be located at 5 Silver Street.
The Hub will offer a counter service operated by the Post Office, where customers of all major banks can carry out regular cash transactions, Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm. It will also offer a Community Banker service where customers can talk to their own bank about more complicated issues on the day their bank is in the Hub. In Thorne, the Community Bankers will be available on the following days:
Monday: NatWest
Tuesday: Virgin Money
Wednesday: HSBC
Thursday: TSB
Friday: Halifax
Finding the right location for a Banking Hub that is convenient, accessible and works for everyone often takes time, so Cash Access UK is delighted to have been able to secure convenient premises in the heart of the community. This development is a significant step forward in bringing a Banking Hub to Thorne.
The Hub will open later this year, and the team at Cash Access UK are now working hard to fit out the new premises and will update the community on progress and an opening date as soon as they can. The Thorne Banking Hub page on the Cash Access UK website will provide updates as works progress.
The Hub was recommended by LINK, the UK’s cash access and ATM network, following the announcement of the closure of the town’s last remaining bank branch. More Banking Hubs have been recommended across South Yorkshire and we are progressing hubs in Dinnington, New Rossington, and Wath Upon Dearne.
Gareth Oakley, CEO at Cash Access UK: “We are happy to announce that we have secured a location for our Thorne Banking Hub. It will play an important role in maintaining access to cash and banking services for the community. We will be sure to keep local residents and businesses updated on our progress.”
Cllr Susan Durant, Thorne-Moorends Town Council: "We are delighted that a permanent Banking Hub will be established in Thorne, which will complement the provision of our local Post Office. We are pleased that these vital services will be delivered locally, which will be highly beneficial to our community."
