LETTERS – Why is Halifax closing?

I find it difficult to understand why Spalding’s branch of Halifax bank is closing down in April 2024.
I know the branch is well used.
I am in my 40s and IT literate and competent, but I still go to the branch every month for a print out of a payment because I can’t do that at home or anywhere else.
I hope residents and people of Spalding will do everything possible to get the bank to not close down.
What will happen to the helpful Spalding Halifax bank staff?
Please, Sir John Hayes MP, if you are reading this do help to stop this.
