A MAN who knows a thing or two about postal votes opened the Royal Mail's new delivery office in Kidderminster.

Wyre Forest MP Dr Richard Taylor, who sealed a stunning electoral triumph last year, helped with the festive post at the new building at the Crossley Park retail site.

The centre, which serves 35,000 addresses, boasts disabled parking bays for the first time.

It was previously housed in the Sling but has made way as part of the £60 million Weavers Wharf town centre development.

It is hoped the move will lead to slightly earlier deliveries for its many thousands of customers.
