P&N Bank has unveiled two new branches, marking a significant step in providing inclusive financial services for West Australians.

• Accessible service desks: Designed for ease of use by all customers.
Inclusive visual aids: Wall-mounted TV screens positioned for wheelchair accessibility.

• Self-serve technology: In-branch digital banking tools for convenience.

• Community engagement: A safe space wall showcasing local WA artists and bespoke reconciliation artwork
