Morriston Banking Hub location confirmed

A new Banking Hub for Morriston will be located at 108a Woodfield Street, (in the former Halifax branch).

When the Hub opens, it will offer a counter service operated by the Post Office, where customers of all major banks can carry out regular cash transactions, Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm. It will also offer a Community Banker service where customers can talk to their own bank about more complicated issues on the day their bank is in the Hub. Community Bankers will work on rotation, with a different bank available on each day of the week.

Finding the right location for a Banking Hub that is convenient, accessible and works for everyone often takes time, so Cash Access UK is delighted to have been able to secure convenient premises in the heart of the community. This development is a significant step forward in bringing a Banking Hub to Morriston.

The Hub will open later this year, and the team at Cash Access UK are now working hard to fit out the new premises and will update the community on progress and an opening date as soon as they can. The Morriston Banking Hub page on the Cash Access UK website will provide updates as works progress.  

The Hub was recommended by LINK, the UK’s cash access and ATM network, following the announcement of the closure of the town’s last remaining bank branch in August 2022.

There are currently five Banking Hubs open across Wales, located in Abergele, Prestatyn, Porthcawl, Treorchy and Welshpool. Alongside Morriston’s new Hub, Cash Access UK are also working on Hubs in Abertillery, Flint, Mountain Ash and Risca.

Gareth Oakley, CEO at Cash Access UK: “It’s great news that we have secured a location for our Banking Hub in Morriston. It’s a big step forward we’ll keep the community updated as it progresses.”
