Organisers of this year's postbox Christmas trail are "overwhelmed" by the support of the people of St Albans which has helped them come close to their colossal fundraising target.
As St Albans moved quickly from Tier 2 to Tier 3 and then Tier 4, residents could take part in a COVID safe, family-friendly activity - walking and running outside to find as many of the 50 decorated postboxes as possible.
There have been many collages of postbox toppers shared, including some by people who have visited all 50. The campaign has had a huge reach and has brought joy and cheer to the people of St Albans, which is also reflected in the number of donations received.
