St Mary's Church Cloughton has become the first church in the Diocese of York to host their village Post Office. The Post Office will be open from 10.00 to 13.30 on Tuesdays, and 12.00 – 15.30 on Thursdays.

The Revd Liz Kitching is Vicar of St Mary’s, Cloughton. She said, “I’m delighted to see the Post Office open again in Cloughton, and pleased that we at St Mary’s were able to help with this. It has taken 19 months from the first approach from the Parish Council to this opening, with the help of lots of good will, prayer, hard work, and paperwork from lots of people!

“When we were asked if St Mary’s could host the Post Office we said "yes" immediately because the village had been so helpful and generous in helping us to raise the money we needed to make the church child-friendly and accessible for people with disabilities. Hosting the Post Office is something the church can do to help our community in return.”
