Two examples of this recent slogan, neither of great quality but sufficient to make out the slogan: Send A Card/Deliver A Smile for/Thinking of You Week, 18th-24th September. Black Adder the Third (series) and a Humpback Whale stamps.  |

Latest GB Slogan 19 July 2024 - Medway Mail Centre Movember Thought is this very late use of the 2023 slogan, but the design is completely different so I have come to the conclusion that it is an early heads up for Movember this year. Apologies for the poor quality not the best of impressions. Geoff (GBCC) www.gbcovercollector.co.uk |

Dog Awareness Week 2025  Scan_20250712 (3) by Daniel, on Flickr Royal Mail reports almost 2,200 dog attacks on posties last year Royal Mail today (30 June 2025) announced that 2,197 dog attacks on its staff were reported over the past year, marking a 2% increase compared to the previous reporting period. The figure equates to an average of 42 attacks every week across the UK, with some leading to permanent and disabling injuries. This year saw a reduction in attacks causing serious and significant injury to postal workers - but they are still unacceptably high. There were 74 significant injuries recorded in 2024/25 compared to the 82 reported in 2023/24 – a 10% reduction. The figures have been released at the start of the 13th annual Dog Awareness Week, which will run from 30 June to 6 July and encourages responsible dog ownership. Royal Mail is appealing to dog owners to ensure they understand the often-devastating impact of dog attacks on postmen and postwomen and take proper measures to ensure their pets pose no threat to delivery postal workers through responsible dog ownership. Highest-risk location was the S (Sheffield) postcode where 66 postal workers suffered dog attacks, followed by the PO (Portsmouth) postcode area with 60 attacks and the TN (Kent/Sussex/Surrey) postcode area third with 56 attacks. (See below for more details on the top 10 dog attack hot-spots.) As in previous years, nearly half of dog attacks, 1,005 (46%), took place at the front door. A further 606 (28%) dog attacks took place in the garden, drive or yard. There were 183 (8%) attacks in the street or road. There were 403 injuries suffered through the letterbox - accounting for 18% of attacks on postal workers. Letterbox attacks were the subject of a 2020 High Court ruling that stated dog owners (or those in care of a dog) can be prosecuted if their pets have free access to the letterbox and cause injury to any delivery operative, whether the owner is at home or not. Dog attacks on Royal Mail colleagues resulted in 2,700 days of absence in 2024/25 with the longest period of absence being 108 days. There are approximately 13.5 million pet dogs in the UK, according to UK Pet Food’s Pet Data Report 2024. |

Dog awareness slogan. Great Post daniel. Have been on the receiving end twice, in my small hometown. Cycling say 10-15 Kph, and they come out of nowhere, attacking the feet and ankles. It's absolutely terrifying. |

rod222 You probably have the 'Secure your dog for safe delivery' Australia postmark? If you do, I would love an image of it, can't find one anywhere.
Thanks
