CHILDREN hoping for a little extra magic this Christmas need their letters to Santa posted soon if they want to hear back from Father Christmas himself.
With under seven weeks to go until Christmas, Royal Mail is lending a helping hand to one of its most special customers, Father Christmas.
Royal Mail, which praises itself on managing Santa’s mailbag for 55 years, is asking children to send letters by no later than Friday, December 11, if they want to get a special response from the Big Man himself.
To get a response, you must include your full name and address.
Axelle Galera, 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 55 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.”
To make sure Santa receives your letter on time, please make sure you write to him, using the correct address, on a stamped envelope.

Later this month, Royal Mail will reveal the definitive guide to what children want for Christmas with a list of the most wished-for toys, in a poll based on the children’s letters.
The postal service is encouraging customers to post festive greetings early as well as order their online gifts and shopping well in advance this year, to help its postmen and women deliver the bumper festive mailbag.
