How to find DS a penpal?

DS' school have a penpal programme but it's only for a limited number of kids. He's now in his last year of primary and has never been chosen. He's had hope every year but day 1 of term today and he's not on the list. (He's been given another role instead).

He's disappointed. So I'd like to find him a penpal. How does one do this and know he is definitely corresponding with a child?!

I tried to do this last year and gave up. Before I discovered Mumsnet!

Following with interest as DSD has mentioned wanting a pen pal too!

There's a fb group called worldwide snail mail penpals. I've got a few penpals from it and people do ask for penpals for their kids. Just a thought.

Is he 10? DS10 would love a pen pal if your DS would be interested.
