New Letters to Heaven Postbox Opens

Our new Letters to Heaven Postbox has been unveiled at the Sensory Garden at the Garden of Remembrance, Burnham Road, South Woodham Ferrers, by the Mayor Cllr Shearring and Deputy Mayor Cllr Kelly.

This special post box offers a quiet space for reflection, remembrance, and emotional expression. Visitors are warmly invited to write letters, notes, or drawings to loved ones they miss, and gently post them as part of their personal journey through grief and healing.

Whether marking an anniversary, sharing a cherished memory, or simply saying “I love you,” the act of writing can be deeply comforting. The post box is emptied regularly, but the contents are never read. Messages remain private and sacred, and are respectfully returned to the earth.

We kindly ask that only letters and cards are placed into the box.

We hope this small addition brings comfort to those who visit, and helps keep cherished memories alive in a peaceful and respectful way.
