Lewis-Manning Hospice Care Launches Christmas Tree Collection & Recycling Campaign to Fund Patient Well-being
Lewis-Manning Hospice Care is kicking off the new year with its annual Christmas Tree Collection & Recycling Campaign, taking place on 9th, 10th, and 11th January 2025 across postcodes BH1–BH23. By recycling your Christmas trees, you and local people in your community can make a truly meaningful impact, helping local hospice patients whilst promoting sustainability and supporting the environment.
If you are planning to have a real Christmas Tree this year Lewis-Manning invites you to join them in this recycling campaign and register and donate online today at www.lewis-manning.org.uk/trees, where a suggested donation of £15 will allow the hospice to deliver a virtual exercise and well-being session run by one of the hospice Occupational Therapists. This vital service helps the growing community of housebound patients achieve a more active, fulfilling life and remain connected to each other.
A Win-Win for your Community and the Environment
Head of Fundraising, Vicki Gray advised, “Our Christmas tree recycling initiative is so much more than raising funds for an important local hospice – It’s an opportunity for the community to support crucial well-being services for Dorset hospice patients, whilst championing the environment.
“All trees collected are recycled into chippings and mulch for use in our local parks, gardens, playgrounds, and other community spaces across Dorset.”
Generous Community Support
Lewis-Manning Hospice Care extends special thanks to corporate partners Stewarts Garden Centres, Katie Fox Estate Agents, United Taxis, and Eco Sustainable Solutions, whose sponsorship and support makes this initiative possible.
How It Works:
- Register & Donate: Sign up online to book your collection.
- Confirmation: Once booked via Lewis-Manning’s website, you will receive a confirmation email. When the bookings close on 6th January, the team will be in touch to let you know when your tree will be collected.
- Collection dates: All trees will be collected on 9th, 10th, and 11th January. Leave your tree in your specified location and let Lewis-Manning do the rest!
Vicki concluded, “Lets kick off 2025 with purpose and compassion, turning your tree into hope and support for local families in need, and help make a lasting impact.”
