THE work of postal workers is being celebrated today as they continue to play a huge role in the Covid-19 crisis.
National Postal Workers’ Day is an annual event organised by the Communication Workers Union (CWU) to promote posties’ work, but is particularly pertinent this year.
A union spokesman said: “We are living in unprecedented times but one thing always remains constant - the significant role our members play in every community in the UK.
“ From delivering essential items to checking on the elderly and taking shopping to the most vulnerable, we have seen thousands of examples of local postal workers stepping up.”
It wants the public, media and politicians to give additional respect, thanks and recognition this year.
