A newly refurbished post office will be officially reopened today.

Rayners Lane Post Office, in Alexandra Avenue, had an extensive make over in the New Year as part of the Post Office's network transformation programme.

The new-look shop will open for longer hours, from 7.30am to 8pm from Monday to Saturday and from 8am to 2pm on Sundays, and will include an additional counter at the front of the shop.

The official opening will be attended by MP Gareth Thomas, Harrow Mayor Councillor Ajay Maru and the Deputy Mayor of Harrow, and will take place from 1pm.
