Have you spotted the postbox toppers around the city? With over 100 handmade by local knitters and crocheters this year and spread across the district, you have hopefully come across one or two! Every topper is sponsored by local businesses and are supporting two charities: Herts Domestic Abuse Helpline and Comfort Cases UK. If you would like to make a donation you can do so here... https://donate.giveasyoulive.com/fundraising/st-albans-postboxes-2025
It also makes a fun family seasonal trail, and if you want to take on the challenge of finding as many as you can you can find a map on the St Albans Postboxes website and a printed version at St Albans Museum in town and Inn on The Park.
If you want to take it to the next level, find all 100 toppers, photograph each one and submit your entry for a chance to win a £100 meal voucher for a local pub (Details and checklist included with the map.)
And if you would like to enjoy the toppers all year round, a brand-new celebration book is available, featuring all 102 toppers from the 2024 world record attempt, plus photos and behind-the-scenes stories. A perfect Christmas gift with all proceeds supporting Gaddesden Place Riding for Disabled Centre (RDA) and Up on Downs.
