“Unfortunately in recent weeks, there has been a noticeable increase in aggressive and unpleasant behaviour, towards our staff.

“All we ask is that you treat our staff, with the respect and courtesy they deserve. These are challenging times for us all and our staff are working hard to ensure we operate safely, as well as looking after our customer’s needs.

“Thank you for your understanding, we look forward to seeing you again soon.”
