**Why the Delay?**
Several factors such as high levels of sick leave and resourcing issues are to blame. While they’re trying their best, it might take a wee bit longer for your postie to make it to your door.

**Stay Patient, Folks!**
“The heatwave last month also slowed things down,” Royal Mail previously stated. With hot weather back, they’re making sure their posties stay safe while working under these conditions. Thanks for your patience if things take longer!

**Looking Forward**
Despite these ongoing issues, Royal Mail is investing in improving their service, aiming for 85% of First Class deliveries to be on time soon. They’re determined to hit that 90% target by next year!

Let’s hope these improvements roll out soon and our beloved snail mail can speed up a notch! 📬 Keep an eye out if your postcode is on the list, and let us know if you’ve been affected!
