Santa Mail

With just under six weeks to go until Christmas, Royal Mail is once again lending a helping hand to one of its most special customers, Santa.

For over 60 years, Royal Mail has been helping to make Christmas wishes come true by sending children’s letters to the North Pole.

Now Santa’s team of helpers at Royal Mail is gearing up to deliver the hundreds of thousands of letters sent to him by children from all across the UK.

Santa is happy to receive cards and letters now, but because of the very busy Christmas ahead, letters should be posted no later than Monday 9 December 2024, using a stamped envelope and sent to the following address:

Santa/Father Christmas,
Santa’s Grotto,
Reindeerland,
XM4 5HQ

Lisa Luveniyali, Royal Mail Chief Elf, who ensures children’s letters reach Santa at his grotto in Reindeerland in the North Pole, said: 'Royal Mail plays a very special part in the nation’s Christmas preparations. We are proud that for over 60 years, Santa has allowed us to help manage the hundreds of thousands of special letters he receives from boys and girls across the country.

'His special team of elves at Royal Mail especially enjoy taking a peek at what children are asking for as well as helping Santa reply to these special letters. Don’t forget to use a stamp and include your full name and address on your letter so Santa can reply to you!'

Once all of this year’s letters have been received, Royal Mail will reveal the definitive guide to what children actually want for Christmas, with a ‘Top 10’ list of the most wished for toys, in a unique poll based on the children’s own letters.
