St Albans and District Foodbank have launched their Reverse Advent Calendar for 2025. Each day, for 25 days, you are invited to make a food donation to the foodbank to help make Christmas that little bit easier for local families and households who find themselves in food crisis.

To ensure that children's letters reach Father Christmas in plenty of time to receive a reply, Royal Mail have said that letters need to reach him by 10th December. Letters should be sent to:

XM4 5HQ
Be sure to put a stamp on the envelope and include the child's name and address clearly. Note that the reply from this service is a standard letter and is not personalised.
