As the festive season approaches many of us are preparing to send heartfelt cards and thoughtful parcels to loved ones near and far. At Envelopes.co.uk, we know how important it is to get your packaging right!
What’s New for Christmas 2025?
Royal Mail has released its annual Christmas stamp collection, featuring beautifully illustrated scenes from the Nativity by award-winning artist Paula Doherty. These festive designs add a touch of seasonal charm to your envelopes, whether you're sending a classic Christmas card or a small gift.
What’s New in Postage?
Royal Mail’s first-class stamp is now £1.70, reflecting broader changes in delivery costs. While this is a slight increase, it’s a good reminder to plan ahead and make smart choices with your packaging. With so much more being sent at Christmas, a little preparation goes a long way.
