Isle of Man Post Office has reviewed the public feedback regarding its decision to paint the Kirk Onchan Post Box back to its traditional red colour and is happy to advise it will reinstate it gold.
Simon Kneen, Chief Executive of Isle of Man Post Office, said: “Our decision had been to return the post box back to its uniform colour 10 years after painting it gold. However the disappointment of many is clear and we are happy to listen to customers and return the box gold.”
Mr Kneen added: “Prior to repainting the box red, we did speak to the Kennaugh family and out of courtesy had informed Onchan District Commissioners and the Sub Postmaster of Onchan Post Office. We hope Mr Kennaugh and his family and our customers will be pleased with our decision to return the box gold.”
