June's slogan postmarks continued from May with the British Heart Foundation (default).
New June slogan postmarks will be shown here; please check for latest updates before spending your time scanning, but if you have something new or another format, then please do send it in for publication.
This was on our incoming mail last week. From Jubilee Mail Centre 02-06-2023.

Thanks to RW for sending the latest new slogan, which will please the greetings card industry, which is for Father's Day. This started on 10 June. A poor impression from Tyneside NE/SR Mail Centre probably 12/06/2023.

UPDATE 17 June. Now that it's too late to post a card for Father's Day a new slogan has been introduced ahead of the issue of the Windrush stamps on 22 June. My thanks to Andi B for sending examples from Greenford/Windsor Mail Centre and Southampton Portsmouth & IOW both dated 16 June 2023.
