Instead, to minimise contact with volunteers, QR codes will be linked to the Scouts' JustGiving page where people can make a one-off donation".


Cancellations

Postmark (small, solid background)

Type P1 - used 1998.

 


In more recent years the following two cancels have been used every year, cycling through three diferent colours - red (eg. 2004), green (eg. 2003) & blue(?). As stamps are often used in years after their original issue it is possible to find a single stamp cancelled in any of the colours so no attempt is made to separate them.
