🚨 Coalville deserves proper banking access 🚨
Following the announced closure of Lloyds Bank, many residents, especially older and vulnerable people who rely on counter services, are understandably worried. North West Leicestershire’s largest town must not be left without proper access to cash and banking services.
I’m already acting. I’m challenging the current assessment with LINK and secured a meeting to press the case for a Banking Hub in Coalville, just as has been done successfully in Ashby with their hub set to open later this year.
✍️ My petition, which has already had hundreds of signatures, is building momentum and showing the strength of local feeling. Please sign and share to help us make the strongest possible case.
This is about standing up for Coalville and working together, across parties and across our community, to protect vital local services.
I’ve written to Cllr Smith regarding his comments on social media about the closure of the Lloyds branch in Coalville and my petition for a Banking Hub.
Let’s make sure our town isn’t left behind.

🏦 Closure of Lloyds Bank, Coalville
I have been informed that the Lloyds Bank branch in Coalville will close on 23rd June 2026.
Lloyds will be contacting local customers shortly, if they have not already, to make them aware of the closure and alternative ways of banking with Lloyds.
Lloyds have agreed to provide a Community Banker to support their local customers after the branch closes and whilst this support is welcome, many residents and local businesses will understandably be concerned about the loss of a permanent high-street banking presence in Coalville.
Access to in-person banking services remains vital for those who are less able to travel, people who are not confident using digital banking, and for small businesses that rely on cash services. The closure will require customers to travel further for face-to-face support, and I know this will be inconvenient and worrying for some.
That is why I have already engaged with LINK to request a Banking Hub review for Coalville to ensure face-to-face services remain local to the area. I’ll also be writing to Lloyds directly too.
You can sign my petition now to help show your support and the strength of feeling locally for bringing a Banking Hub to Coalville to help protect these vital services.
