It was just a little tweet to Sara Cox on BBC Radio 2 to see if we could get our friend Matty Hatton from Letters from the Lockdown a shout-out to brighten up his day. Sara decided in honour of Matty they’d make the show “In Celebration of Handwritten Letters”!

Lots of people were inspired by Matty to text or tweet or message in with stories of the best letter they’d ever received.

And if you would like to write to Matty as well, pop by the Facebook page via the link above. He’d love to hear from you and you’d be in very good company (see below!).
