Saint Catherine’s is branching out with its festive fundraising plans by offering a Christmas tree collection and recycling service.
The scheme will see teams of volunteers collecting and disposing of real Christmas trees, for a minimum donation of £10, this January.
The brand new service will operate in the Scarborough within a 10-mile radius of the hospice in Throxenby Lane. The teams will collect trees from outside properties between from 6th to 12th January and they will be taken away for chipping.
Susan Stephenson, fundraiser, said:
“This is not only a great way to help raise much-needed funds for patient care, but it saves our supporters the hassle of disposing of their tree and having a car full of pine needles! We would love this scheme to take off and grow in future years, so please do think of us if you are having a real tree this year.”
To book your tree collection, please go to www.saintcatherines.org.uk/event/christmas-tree-recycling/
Please book by Friday 3rd January 2025.
Businesses already on board to support the scheme include Scalby Manor, Countrywide Grounds Maintenance, Advanced Trees and Grounds and Bespoke Tree Care.
If you would like to volunteer as a part of the tree collection team, please email fundraising@saintcatherines.org.uk
