This is likely to cause a backlog with the number of packages at Royal Mail and therefore will cause further delays to packages being delivered.

Please ensure you order in plenty of time for the intended event.

The CWU has formally notified Royal Mail they plan to call on their members who collect, sort and deliver parcels and letters to take national strike action on Friday 9 December, Sunday 11 December, Wednesday 14 December and Thursday 15 December 2022.
