We've now raised £19,131.98 - amazing!
It's been lovely to see photos being shared and the donations coming in. We've also launched a souvenir book for the world record attempt last year - very exciting.

My story
Every Christmas, postboxes in St Albans and the surrounding area are decorated with crocheted and knitted works of art.
It's fun and it's fundraising, so please dig deep for our two amazing charities for 2025 - Comfort Cases UK and Herts Domestic Abuse Hotline.
The toppers are made by a team of around 50 dedicated volunteers who begin work on these festive delights from about March each year.
Many volunteers help and this is very much a community project, with everyone donating their skills, time and materials.
Thank YOU for your support.
Thank you for checking out my page. Making a donation is fast, easy and secure thanks to Give as you Live Donate. They'll take your donation and pass it onto Comfort Cases Uk and Hertfordshire Domestic Abuse Helpline.
My updates
As we head towards launch, we have raised £12,457.00, mostly from sponsors, which is just fantastic. There's lots going on at Postboxes HQ as we get everything ready for launch. We'd love to see as many people as possible at the launch, which is a short 15/20 minute event in St Albans on Friday 28 November - 930am at the Clock Tower. All are welcome.
Wow, we are now at .... £11,312.00!
We are grateful for each and every donation - thank you.
The team are working hard behind the scenes to finish the toppers (all 100 of them) ready for our Viewing Day, and our Official Launch.
We are still seeking further sponsors, so do send anyone our way!
Off to a fabulous start with £8500 raised from sponsors of the postbox toppers so far. We are so grateful to everyone who is helping us spread the word so we can raise as much as possible for our two charities this year.
