Multiple banks have now announced they will be closing across the area.

It comes as nationally there has been a move to online and mobile banking - meaning fewer people are using banks in person.

However, Age UK has previously raised concern about rising bank closures, stating that "hundreds of thousands of older people" are being left without convenient access to basic banking services.

It is a concern held by many across the area.

Slough BID Manager, Clarissa Parker previously told the Observer: "It is so important for Slough residents, business owners, vulnerable and older generations to have the trust of going into a branch for face-to-face support."

So far this year, Halifax, HSBC, Barclays and Lloyds have announced local closures.

Most recently Halifax, located on Maidenhead High Street announced it will be closing on November 29 as it looks to axe dozens of branches across the country.

It citied the digital world as its reason for closure, adding that visits to the bank have fallen and only 83 customers bank in-store regularly.

In Windsor, Barclays on the High Street has announced its closure with its last day of trading set to be August 23.

HSBC is also to close their Windsor branch on August 22.

Over in Slough Lloyds is set to close their Buckingham Avenue branch on October 5.

Last year, Nationwide closed two Slough bank branches located on Willow Parade, Langley and on the Farnham Road.

Both sites shut on October 20, 2022 leaving local residents "gutted" at the trek they would now need to do to get to a bank on Slough high street.
