From village bank to therapy clinic in Sheffield

The former HSBC bank in Dore is set to become a health clinic under new plans.

Applicant David Webster has asked Sheffield Council for permission to change the shop unit’s use to a clinic offering osteopathy, acupunture, chiropody and massage treatments.

The bank, on Causeway Head Road, closed in August last year.

At the time HSBC said footfall in its branches had reduced by 40 per cent in four years which meant some needed to shut.
