Do you love having a real Christmas tree but dread the aftermath?
Salisbury Hospice Charity, in conjunction with Just Helping, have got you covered with their ever-popular tree collection.
The Christmas tree collection and recycling scheme helps to raise vital funds for Salisbury Hospice Charity – supporting the local community. In return for a donation, we will collect and recycle your Christmas tree – making it one less job in the post-Christmas cleanup!
By registering your tree, you are helping patients and families in need of vital end-of-life care and supporting the environment and the wider community. Our trees are donated to local farms, chipped and used as compost or animal bedding or kept whole and used as feed for alpacas and goats!
After costs, 90% of the monies raised will go to Salisbury Hospice Charity, and the remaining 10% will be distributed to charities in the local community – this year, the remainder will go to supporting Salisbury & South Wilts Scouts.
The Christmas Tree Collection will see volunteers collecting trees in the following postcode areas: SP1, SP2, SP3, SP4, SP5, SP6, SP7, SP9, SO20 6, SO20 8 from 8am on Friday 12th January – Sunday 14th January.
The Christmas Tree Collection is run in partnership with Just Helping. Just Helping supports volunteers, businesses and charities to contribute to their community and the environment. Their national Christmas tree collection raises essential funds for hospices and communities nationwide.
To have your tree collected and recycled after the festive season, register your real tree at www.charityxmastreecollection.com or call 01722 416353, by 8th January 2024.
This year’s collection is proudly sponsored by Step Associates.
