With Christmas now only just over a month away many people are starting to get their Christmas purchases and Christmas cards ready to be sent out. Due to the Covid pandemic this year, lots of people are dubious about sending Christmas cards as they do not really want to send out unnecessary postage that may have been touched by a large number of people. It may be that there are a lot of relatives that you have not been able to see for a long time and so sending them a Christmas card and a letter, could be the boost they need during this lonely time.

If you have lots of friends on social media sites or have their email address then why not create a digital Christmas card. There are several websites where you can create E-cards which can be emailed or shared as a gif on your social media page. This still allows you to wish all your friends and family a Merry Christmas but does cut down on the risk.

If you do still decide to send Christmas cards out then make sure you use self seal envelopes and if you receive any through the post you may wish to quarantine them for about 3 days to avoid any transmission of the virus.
