Residents and businesses in Pembroke Dock are invited to attend a special pop-up advice surgery this Friday (March 27) at the town’s Tesco store, focusing on plans for a ‘banking hub’ for the locality.

The event which will take place between 10.30am and 12.30pm, is hosted by Local Senedd Member Samuel Kurtz, as part of his ongoing commitment to community engagement offering an informal and accessible way for people to engage, ask questions, and receive help on a range of matters.

The event follows the successful campaign for a new banking hub for the town, with attention now turning to the next phase, including delivery, location, and how the hub will operate to support local residents and businesses.

Mr Kurtz said: "This is a major step forward for Pembroke Dock. After a year of campaigning and strong community support, we now have the green light for a banking hub.

“This event is about keeping people informed on what comes next and making sure the hub works for everyone it is intended to serve.

“These drop-in surgeries are vital for ensuring open communication and staying connected to the day-to-day experiences of local people.”

The drop-in session will give people the opportunity to receive updates on progress, understand the next steps, and ask questions about what the banking hub will mean in practice for the community.

No appointment is needed, and people can drop in at any time during the session.

All are welcome to attend, particularly local businesses and residents who rely on access to cash and face-to-face banking services.
