Bromley (Parliament Politics Magazine) – Bromley High Street launches a festive Santa mailbox, letting children post letters as part of seasonal celebrations, drawing families to the town centre.
Howden Insurance has reopened its North Pole Mail Service, allowing kids to mail letters to Santa at its locations and get a customized response.
More than 100 locations in the UK, including those in Bromley, Tooting, Kingston upon Thames, and Ruislip, offer the free festive experience.
The business has revived its success from the previous year.
Mike Dalby, CEO of consumer and local commercial at Howden, said:
“At Howden, we’re proud to bring a little festive magic to our communities once again this Christmas.
We’re looking forward to creating moments of joy for children by making it simple for families to take part in a festive tradition.
We understand how busy this time of year can be, so we’ve designed this initiative to be easy, accessible, and memorable.
It’s a small way we can support families and keep the spirit of Christmas alive on the high street.”
Families can download a letter template by surveying a QR law, and kiddies can submit their letters to Santa in the designated North Pole mailbox.
The child’s name and want list can be added to the template, which can also be published at home or at the branch and delivered to the mailbox.
Santa will respond to each child in a unique way.
Howden branch teams are organizing a number of family-friendly celebrations in addition to the mail service.
These include freebies of mince pie, seasonal family and pet photos, family fun days, Christmas hamper prize draws, donation booths, and festive networking.
Through main street locations and professional teams throughout the UK and Ireland, the company named Insurance Broker of the Decade offers individual insurance advice.
Finding the appropriate insurance or managing complicated risks are just two examples of how it focuses on understanding what matters most to people and businesses.
Young guests can anticipate a unique response and a little Christmas magic by putting a letter in the North Pole mailbox.
Families are urged by Howden to utilize the customizable letter template, which is readily available via a QR code in the branch.
