Northern Ireland Post Offices are coming under mounting pressure to remain viable amid rising costs and banking regulations.
The people who run our Post Offices say they have been at the heart of many communities for decades as a place where people can communicate with one another, do business and access certain government services and banking.
However in recent years the service model has been coming under increased pressure with some Post Offices struggling to cover their costs. Some are even being subsidised by partner retail businesses, bosses say.
