Back to EpisodesCoalville Fights for Banking Hub, Despite LINK's Denial
Description
Coalville, Leicestershire, faces bank branch closure, prompting local leaders to appeal against LINKs decision to deny a banking hub. MP Amanda Hack and councillors argue the town meets criteria, citing numerous small businesses and vulnerable residents needing face-to-face banking. LINK, however, maintains that free ATMs, Nationwide branch, and nearby Post Offices serve as adequate alternatives. The appeal challenges LINKs data, with officials hoping for a reversal to keep services close by.
