Recycle your Christmas tree with St Wilfrid’s
Date published: 22 December 2025
We’ve launched our Christmas tree recycling service to help raise vital funds for hospice care.
In return for a donation, a band of hospice staff and volunteers will collect your real Christmas tree between Thursday 8th and Sunday 11th January.
Areas covered include Eastbourne, Seaford, Polegate, Hailsham, Uckfield, Herstmonceux and Heathfield. Online bookings are open until 10pm on Tuesday 6th January to allow for the routes to be planned.
Corporate Fundraiser, Debra Elliott, said: “When we launched this service in January 2025, it proved to be more popular than we ever expected, and we were amazed to raise over £9,000.
“We’d like to thank our sponsors, Enterprise Mobility and East Sussex College, as well as the volunteers and businesses who have signed up to help out with the collections – we couldn’t do it without their support.
For more information or to book a collection, visit stwhospice.org/tree, email corporates@stwhospice.org or call 01323 434221.
