Does Suffolk need banks any more?

The parliamentary constituency of Central Suffolk and North Ipswich will be without a physical bank branch by the end of the year, according to consumer group Which?.

This includes the likes of Framlingham, Claydon, Eye, Debenham, Kesgrave, Stradbroke and Wickham Market.

UK Finance, which represents the banking and finance industry, said: "An ever increasing number of people are using telephone, mobile and internet banking and fewer people are visiting bank branches on a regular basis.

鈥淪ignificant ongoing investment is being made to deliver this commitment, including shared banking hubs, free ATMs and cashback without purchase.鈥

Guy Campbell visited Framlingham, which has been without a bank since August 2023.
