Halifax to shut 15 bank branches across UK in September – full list of closures | Personal Finance | Finance

Halifax is set to close 15 branches across the UK during September 2026, affecting customers in towns and cities including Horsham, Cannock, Barrow-in-Furness, Milton Keynes, Woking and several parts of London.

The closures are part of wider changes to the Lloyds Banking Group branch network, as more customers move towards online and mobile banking. The first Halifax branch scheduled to close in September is in Horsham on 8 September, while the final closures are due to take place on 30 September.

The closures come as Halifax and its parent company, Lloyds Banking Group, respond to changing customer behaviour.

An increasing number of customers now manage their money through mobile banking apps and online services rather than visiting a branch.

Halifax says it considers how customers use individual branches and what alternative banking services are available in the local area when making decisions about closures.

The bank also works with LINK, the UK’s cash-access organisation, to assess the impact of branch closures on access to cash.

The closures are also taking place as Halifax’s presence on the UK’s high streets is changing.

Lloyds Banking Group has announced plans to gradually move the Halifax brand under the Lloyds umbrella, with Halifax branches being rebranded as Lloyds or, in some cases, replaced by an existing Lloyds branch serving the same community.

Halifax has said that previously announced branch closure plans will continue despite the wider rebranding programme.

Customers affected by changes are expected to be contacted by the bank with information about alternative services.
