Shepperton Post Office Finalists in National Awards

Congratulations to Tom and Sharon at Shepperton Post Office who were worthy finalists in the Post Office ‘We’re Stronger Together’ awards for service during Covid-19 pandemic. Absolutely well deserved!! 

Shepperton Post Office was a finalist in the Local Hero category at the Post Office’s ‘We’re Stronger Together’ regional awards for the South East region. 

The awards recognise the efforts made by postmasters across the region to keep branches open during the Covid-19 pandemic and serving their local community. 

The great work by Postmaster Tom O’Connor who runs Shepperton Post Office, was highlighted by Post Office Chief Executive Nick Read. The fact that Tom himself succumbed to Covid 19 and was so ill and that Sharon kept the post office going by herself was incredible. They are certainly a couple of local heroes as we will no doubt all agree. 

It is service like this makes our community stronger.
