Christmas Tree Collection Service

Let us take the stress out of disposing of your Christmas tree after the holidays!

Our Christmas tree collection service helps us raise vital funds for the Hospice. In return for a donation to support local hospice care, we will come and collect your real tree from outside your home from the 12-14 January 2024 and recycle it for you!

No hassle, no waste and no needles in your car!

Your support will help us raise the £14,000 a day needed to provide all our services for the local community for free. Our vital care and support helps our patients and their families at a time when they need us most.

Collection postcodes include: RG20 5, RG21, RG22, RG23, RG24, RG25, RG26, RG27, RG28 and RG29

How your donation will help

By booking your tree collection today and making a donation, you’ll help us continue to be there for local people, and their loved ones, living with a life-limiting illness, facing the end of life or experiencing bereavement.

  • £20 could fund an hour of expert care from our nursing team
  • £36.42 could help to fund a counselling bereavement session

After costs, 85% of the monies raised will be distributed to St. Michael’s Hospice and the remaining 15% distributed to a nominated charity or community group.
