A shared banking counter arrives in Chepstow
The Treasury has announced the opening of the UK’s 250th banking hub, ahead of the planned closure of Chepstow’s remaining bank branch.

The hub offers cash services, access to community bankers and a free external ATM. The government says at least 350 hubs are planned during this Parliament. That is a target, rather than a count of centres already operating.
