Our Letters from Santa mail room has now closed. Thank you to everyone who has requested a personalised Letter from Santa for the children or loved ones in their life this year. Our elves will ensure that all letters are posted out in good time for Christmas Eve.
Pilgrims Hospices are inviting you to submit your requests for personalised letters to be sent to children, or big kids alike, in the lead up to Christmas.
Our letters from Santa are specially personalised for each individual by our team of elves, based on the information you provide, and come printed on one of five beautifully illustrated Christmas-themed papers, together with a certificate for being on Santa’s Nice List.

The personal touch
When requesting your letter, we’ll ask questions such as your loved one’s name, what present they are hoping for, and why they have been especially good this year.

Each letter is individually personalised by a hand-selected team of elves here at Pilgrims Hospices so you can be assured that your loved one receives something entirely unique for them.
He’s making a list, he’s checking it twice…
Every letter comes enclosed with an official North Pole certificate stating that your loved one is on Santa’s Nice List, issued by the Head Elf in charge of the Naughty and Nice List, Alabaster Snowball.
Interest is expected to be very high, so don’t delay and request your Letter from Santa today and support Pilgrims Hospices this Christmas.
