This is the best summary I could come up with:
Post Office customers will soon be able to send parcels over the counter using DPD and Evri delivery services.
The new service will begin in selected stores in time for the peak Christmas delivery season, the Post Office said.
Earlier this year, industry watchdog Ofcom launched an investigation into Royal Mail after it failed to meet its delivery targets.
Royal Mail said at the time its services had been affected by 18 days of strike action and high levels of staff absence.
It previously said delivering letters was no longer profitable and that it was focusing on parcels because of the increasing popularity of online shopping.
Evri, which says it delivers more than 730 million parcels each year, said its international services would be available "at selected Post Office counters".
