A high street bank in a market town is to close for almost a month as it undergoes a refurb. 

The HSBC branch in Dereham is now closed for a refresh, which includes internal building work, until July 24.

Customers will be able to access pop-up events at Dereham Library throughout the closure. 

George Hemstock, HSBC UK’s local director, said: “We continue to invest in our branch network to make our customers’ experience banking with us a good one.

"We are pleased that our Dereham branch is getting a refresh, with some painting, new signage and the installation of new state-of-the-art cash machines, which we are excited about.

"While we are having the work done people can continue to use their nearest Post Office for day-to-day transactions, plus mobile and online banking is available 24/7 in addition to being able to call our contact centre."

The community pop-up events at the library will be from 9.30am to 12.30pm on July 3, July 8, July 11, July 15 and July 18.
