First Trust Banks have announced they are closing 15 of its branches across Northern Ireland - 2 of these branches are in Co. Tyrone. 

This is following a 40% drop in 'in branch' usage since 2010. 

Cookstown is due to face closure on the 30th of June, followed by Strabane on the 28th of July. 

The company will also be opening 5 new 'specialist business centres' and one of them will be coming to Ennsikillen. 

The number of staff that will be affected throughout the process is unclear at the minute.
