Posting letters to santa royal mail
The magic of posting letters to Santa!
In the UK, Royal Mail offers a special service for children to send their letters to Santa Claus. Here's how it works:
How to post your letter to Santa:
- Write your letter to Santa Claus, telling him about your wishes and hopes for Christmas.
- Make sure to include your return address so Santa can write back to you.
- Place your letter in an envelope and address it to: Santa Claus North Pole ARCTIC FP1 1ZZ
- Take your letter to a Royal Mail post office or a postbox.
- Ask the post office staff to help you send your letter to Santa. They will apply a special Santa stamp and a special postmark.
When to post your letter:
Royal Mail recommends posting your letter to Santa by December 10th to ensure it arrives at the North Pole in time. However, you can post your letter up until December 23rd.
What happens to your letter:
Once your letter is posted, Royal Mail will sort it and send it to a special team at the North Pole. The team will then respond to your letter, writing back to you and sending it back to your home.
Tips:
- Make sure to include your return address so Santa can write back to you.
- You can also include a small drawing or a photo with your letter.
- If you're posting a letter to Santa from a postbox, make sure to use a postbox that is open and accessible.
- If you're posting a letter to Santa from a post office, ask the staff to help you with the process.
Special Santa stamps:
Royal Mail releases special Santa stamps each year, which are only available for a limited time. These stamps feature festive designs and are a fun way to add a touch of magic to your letter to Santa.
Santa's Special Delivery:
In addition to posting your letter to Santa, Royal Mail also offers a special Santa's Special Delivery service. This service allows you to send a special gift to Santa, which will be delivered to the North Pole. The gift will then be used to help Santa and his elves prepare for the festive season.
