ISLE OF MAN POST OFFICE COMMEMORATES ONE OF THE ISLAND’S OLDEST AND MOST POPULAR CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS

Isle of Man Post Office has issued a set of six stamps commemorating the 70th Birthday of HRH Prince Charles, and the 60th anniversary of his being conferred the title Prince of Wales. The stamps have been carefully selected with the help of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters (RSPP).

An act of remembrance has taken place today in the staff foyer by our WW1 and WW2 war memorials where members of staff have placed poppy wreaths in remembrance of our colleagues who gave “their tomorrow for our today” and reflected on the contribution men and woman of our Island have given to allow us to enjoy our freedom today.
The ceremony concluded with the Last post at 11am and with a 2 minutes’ silence.

A special commemorative envelope, limited to 1000 editions will be issued by Britain’s Crown Dependencies and Overseas Territory Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey and Gibraltar on 11 November 2018 to mark 100 years since the signing of the Armistice Treaty.
