Article Abstract:

Many people in the UK have a desire to run a village shop which is also a post office, but this can be a precarious way of earning a living. The business can allow newcomers to integrate rapidly, and the existence of teleworkers and small businesses can boost the post office side of the business. Pensioners collect their money at the post office, but fewer than before since some are paid directly. Burglary and competition from supermarkets can both present threats.
