Christmas Post
« on: September 05, 2008, 22:18:48 PM »
Its nearly Christmas!   :D
This year to help the troop raise funds for their 2010 expedition we will be operating a Scout Christmas Postal Service.
Under 1981 legislation Westbury Scouts as a registered charity can operate a Christmas post service between 25 November and 1st January.  In order that the scouts and long suffering leaders can get a break our service will operate between 25 Nov and 19 Dec and cover the parish of Westbury, its just local really.
Each card will cost 20p to deliver or 5 for £1. We wont be competing with the Royal Mail as we not providing a universal service with daily deliveries.

We have two requests, the first is please use our service once its up and running and secondly an appeal to local business:
We know that the run up to Christmas is your busiest time and so if we approach you to host a post box please treat our request sympathetically.

Many thanks

The Scouts
