Barclays is set to close more than 50 bank branches in 2024 and 2025 in a blow to Britain’s high streets.
The rate of bank branch closures has picked up the pace in recent years.
Banks and building societies have closed 5,818 branches since January 2015, at a rate of around 54 each month, according to Which?
Many high street banking institutions are reducing in-person services and increasing focus on operations online.
Critics have warned local communities are at risk of being disenfranchised with this move within the banking sector.

“We also support access to cash with our cashback without purchase service, 24-hour deposit-taking ATMs and by working alongside the Post Office and Cash Access UK.”
Through Barclays Local initiative, the bank collaborates with local councils to offer in-person services in places such as libraries and town halls.
In 2023, 128 Barclays Local sites with 16 mobile banking vans visiting rural areas in need of financial services.
