These stamps can be used until July. Read it somewhere yesterday.

No this has been extended until the summer no need to panic.

Unfortunately I cannot find anything online to verify this.
There are, however, dozens of articles and notices stating that you must use them by 31 January 2023

Apparently themed and commemorative stamps will be exempt and can be used indefinitely.

I actually got my box of Christmas cards out tonight and found a whole load of old stamps. I was thinking what a waste but was relieved to read I could use them til January.

Just a reminder that you have until 31 January to use or lose stamps without a barcode. More details on the royal mail website on how you can exchange them for the new stamps with a barcode.
