RECYCLING Christmas trees raised a phenomenal £36,000 for St Luke s Hospice last year. Now, after losing so much income through the pandemic, volunteers are hoping families will once again support their festive project. Andy Bailey, corporate partnerships manager for St Luke’s, said: “The Christmas tree collection is a brilliant fundraiser for us and After a difficult year which has seen our fundraising events cancelled and our charity shops closed, we’re hoping that this year’s collection will exceed last year’s amazing success and raise some much needed funds for us.” Registration for the annual Christmas tree collection is now open.
