Across Leeds and the rest of the UK, many bank branches have been shutting their doors in cities, towns and villages, often leaving people with no alternatives.
In Leeds, this problem will see 10 bank branches close with no other bank branches operating in the area. For example, in Otley, the closure of Halifax has left local people with no other options for in-person banking.
Nearby in Guiseley, the local Barclays has closed, leaving people in the town in the exact same situation. This is not a problem which is confined to one section of Leeds either.
