Update: CILP Cinderella Stamps Catalogue

CILP's forthcoming comprehensive catalogue is at the final stages of preparation and due to enter its proof reading stage next month. 

We are excited about publishing it as soon as possible, but our original publication date of 10 November 2025 to coincide with our fifteen anniversary, has been pushed back to 8 December 2025. This is due to the additional stamps scheduled to be released in the last quarter of the year, and we wanted to include all the details of these extra issues in the catalogue.

It will make an ideal addition to any cinderella stamps collector's library and an easy gift for family or friends to buy as it will be available on Amazon for Christmas!

Women's European Champions 2025 Cover

It is with great pleasure that we announce the release of a commemorative cover to celebrate the England Women's football team winning back-to-back UEFA European Championship! This is an addition to our published schedule but CILP could not let this outstanding achievement in women's sport go past without marking the event.

New: Travelling Local Post Cancellation

The Travelling Local Post c.d.s. was introduced on 24 July 2025 to accompany the Postmaster or authorised volunteer postal staff, when delivery of large or heavy mail, or standard contract mail is required, and travelling to the mainland UK is necessary.

This also includes any requirement for motorised delivery for priority items which is occasionally required for large packets and heavy parcels that normally would take too long to reach their destination via local standard or express services, or by normal onward transit through mainland postal services.
