Christmas tree collection raises vital funds for Longfield

MOST READ

Longfield Community Hospice’s Christmas Tree Recycling partnership with charity JustHelping raised a whopping £82,239.

The money will help their Hospice at Home palliative care, Wellbeing and Bereavement Services.

Kirsty Murray, Senior Fundraising Manager, said: “We are over the moon to have exceeded last year’s target for much needed funds. 

“We could not have done this without the help of the 181 volunteers from community groups, local companies and our loyal team of volunteers.

“Between everybody we collected an incredible 4,149 trees from areas reaching from Brockworth to Wotton-Under-Edge, Lechlade to Quedgeley.

“We were also incredibly grateful for the 76 vans loaned for our use, with and without drivers.  We would also like to thank Stroud District Council for helping to promote our tree collection service. This really is a win-win situation with trees being collected and recycled instead of ending up in landfill as well as being our biggest fundraising event and we look forward to doing it all again next Christmas.“
