Across the UK, children are enrolled for the Letterbox Club by local authorities, schools and nurseries. Each child receives their own colourful parcel of books, maths games, stationery and other high quality materials once every month for six months, from May to October. Priced at £135 per child.

For many children, it's the first time they have had a letter or a parcel through the post and for some it's the first time they have had books of their own.
