This is where the map lives, to help you to find all the toppers every December! Walk, cycle, run, use a pogo stick – as you prefer.
With thanks to the fabulous St Albans Times who have featured our maps in 2024 – https://stalbanstimes.co.uk/latest-issue/

St Albans always does a great job to get out there to take pictures of the toppers – and share them with us on social media using #stalbanspostboxes
We would like to remember Helen from Maprunner, who kindly prepared our maps for us over the years, often at the last minute, with amendments and changes galore. All of which she took in her stride, remaining calm and reassuring us that all would be well. We were very sorry to hear of her death in 2023 and send our condolences to Simon and all of her family and friends.
We are so grateful that in 2024, we had help from not one but two experts who volunteered their time to prepare maps in a variety of ways to help you find the maps. Thank you Maprunner Simon and Map Clare – an actual cartographer! – from https://www.maprunner.co.uk/ and https://eventmaps.co.uk/ The maps show locations, with postcodes, and the business sponsors who kindly sponsored all of our postboxes. Please do support these businesses, and tag them on social media if you share their postbox – and tag us of course! #stalbanspostboxes
