Postboxes

In a letter to Nuala, the Prime Minister said: “I want to thank you for the many small acts of kindness you have inspired with your wonderful Kindness Postboxes.

Royal Mail said four postboxes – in London, Glasgow, Cardiff andBelfast – have been painted black with gold trim as part of Black HistoryMonth in October.

Initial complaints from residents centred on the state of the nearby postboxes, with some stating they felt uncomfortable fetching their mail.

Mail from individual customers and public postboxes is collected by mail carriers into plastic tubs, which are taken to one of approximately 251 Processing and Distribution Centers (P&DC) across the United States.
