Royal Mail has issued a warning of potential delays affecting 88 postcodes across the UK, following operational disruptions at two key mail centres. The Chelmsford and Norwich mail centres have reported running behind schedule, processing only some of the mail expected for delivery. A Royal Mail spokesperson explained, “We aim to deliver to all addresses six days a week. However, in a small number of local offices, temporary service interruptions may occur due to factors including high levels of staff sickness, resourcing challenges, and other local issues.
