The Postbox Toppers are coming...

November 8, 2023

We're supporting this year's fundraiser

The local Xmas campaign to spread some joy around the local area in St Albans and Harpenden is back for it's sixth year - and we're getting involved once again... 


Since it's inception this fabulous community initiative has raised over £100,000 for worthy local causes.   This year the team are aiming for more toppers and raising even more for their two chosen charities – Herts Mind Network and Cancer Hair Care.


They'll be over 50 post boxes 'topped' as part of this fabulous event and Harpenden will be an important part of this fun-filled festive activity with around 7 post boxes in the town being suitably dressed for the festive period too.


And The Harpenden Guide is getting involved too and sponsoring the postbox in the town centre (outside Bar Azita)...


And you and your business can get involved too.


Sponsor a Postbox

There are still a number of local postboxes in Harpenden and St Albans that will be decorated and given a festive make over  so if you'd like to get involved and sponsor one of this year's Harpenden Postbox Toppers simply e-mail the team at hq@stalbanspostboxes.org.uk to register for one and make the donation on the link below...

Follow the Trail

There will be a great festive trail to follow to find all the local toppers (there will be over 50 in St Albans and Harpenden) so it's a great fun way to enjoy a family day out.

All the money goes directly to the chosen charities so please do get involved.
