The Communication Workers Union has announced the areas to be affected by postal strikes over this week.

Cambridge, Birmingham and London are among the areas set to be hit by postal strikes this week, it has been revealed.

The Communication Workers Union (CWU) has revealed that delivery offices across the entire capital will hold 24-hour strikes over the coming days, along with sites in the Midlands and further afield.

In addition, all of the UK could be affected by industrial action involving drivers across the Royal Mail network, which will take place on September 16th.

Postal services in Scotland will not be immune from the action either, as offices in Ayr, Irvine, Kilmarnock and Kilwinning are set to strike on Friday (September 18th).

At the end of last week, the CWU also confirmed it is to hold a national ballot to give members a chance to vote on taking further postal strike action.
