A bank in Kidderminster is set to close for almost a month for refurbishment work. 

HSBC has announced that the branch on Church Street will be temporarily closed from today (Tuesday, August 6) whilst it undergoes a refresh including internal building work. 

The refurbishment is set to include new signage and the installation of new state-of-the-art cash machines. 

The bank is expected to re-open on Monday, September 2. 

Natasha Moore, 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 Kidderminster 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. 

"We have been talking to customers about the temporary closure for the last month and 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. 

"We will also be hosting community pop-up events at the Post Office located within WHSmith at 19 to 20 Vicar Street, Kidderminster, DY10 1DD, where we will be on hand to support customers. 

"We will be there on Tuesday (August 20) from 9am until 4pm.

"Customers can also continue to use any of our branches with HSBC Stourbridge being the closest branch."
