A giant postcard is on its way to New Zealand Post chief executive Brian Roche, as the campaign continues to save the Dunedin Post Shop in the Exchange before its closure on June 23.

About 20 people attended a protest yesterday in the Octagon, calling for support from the Dunedin City Council in the campaign to save the Princes St post office from closure.

The postcard, signed by protesters, was posted from the Princes St outlet.

Save Dunedin Metro Post Shop and Kiwibank campaign spokesman Victor Billot said supporters had been "doing it all" to show New Zealand Post and the council their opposition to the shop's closure.

The campaign has collected more than 2500 petition signatures, and staged a rally, three protests and a public meeting.
