Please note that the Lloyds Bank Community Banker is not a banking hub. A banking Hub is a shared space, normally on the high street, letting customers of multiple banks deposit and withdraw cash and perform other everyday banking tasks. They look set to become the main way for many to access banking in the coming years, as banks continue to shut individual branches.

Nailsea Town Council is delighted that LINK, the UK’s Cash Access and ATM network, have announced that residents and businesses in Nailsea will soon find it easier to access banking services thanks to the addition of a new banking hub in the town. The announcement follows a community request from Cllr James Turner on behalf of Nailsea Town Council.
