Royal Mail set to release new stamps and when you can buy them

The Royal Mail is issuing a new set of stamps in tribute to women's vital contributions during the Second World War.

The main set of 10 stamps illustrates the huge range of work women undertook during the war years. Included is a rare photograph showing female codebreakers working at Bletchley, where they operated the complex cryptographic machinery.

A further four stamps, presented in a miniature sheet, showcase the brave work of the ferry pilots of the Air Transport Auxiliary - known as the Spitfire Women.
