Go green this Christmas and help us continue to care

18 November 2024 | View all news

Go green and register your Christmas tree for recycling in exchange for a donation to our charity.

Register and donate online, and we will collect trees from homes, schools, churches, and businesses and take them to Mill Farm Recycling, near Eccleshall, where the trees will be shredded and turned into quality peat-free compost.

All donations collected in return for this recycling service will help to fund the vital care and support we provide to those living with incurable illnesses.

Our Christmas tree collection scheme is now in its eighth year. Over 4,000 trees have been recycled and almost £52,000 has been raised in donations.

How to register

Donate and register your tree at www.just-helping.org.uk/register-tree before midnight on Sunday, 5 January 2025. We will collect the trees the following week for recycling.

We will collect from the following postcodes:

ST14, ST15, ST16, ST17, ST18, ST19, ST20, ST21, WS11, WS12 and WS15

The service is for real trees only and pots and decorations must be removed.

Make this our best year yet

Lyndsey Howard, Community and Events Fundraiser, said: “This is our 35th anniversary year and so we want to make this our best year yet – collecting even more trees and raising more funds through donations.

“Local businesses, other charities and valuable individuals have supported our charity for an amazing 35 years.

“This impressive level of support makes it possible for us to provide our free, expert care to more families who need us.

“Seeing the trees being turned into something new instead of ending up in landfill is always satisfying.”
