Start 2025 in the most tree-mendous way by recycling your Christmas Tree with Heart of Kent Hospice

Last year we recycled more than 600 Christmas trees and raised over £9,000.

This is the third year that we have offered a hassle free, environmentally friendly way to
dispose of your Christmas tree after the festive season. All the amazing volunteers will again be
braving the pine needles and the cold to collect your real (spruce, fir or pine) trees over three days
on Friday 3, Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 January 2025.

Trees will be collected from front gardens or driveways while you stay warm indoors!

A donation of £15 per tree is suggested and the amount raised from the Christmas Tree Recycling
will help us to continue providing exceptional specialist care for people with a terminal
illness either at the Hospice inpatient unit or at home.

We have expanded the collection areas with additional postcodes.
Christmas trees will be collected from the following postcodes and areas: ME5 9, ME6 5, ME14,
ME15, ME16, ME17 3, ME17 4, ME18, ME19, ME20, TN12 5, TN15 7, TN15 8, TN15 9,
Shipbourne, Plaxtol, Hadlow, Burham, Wouldham.

The Christmas trees will be chipped by partners Gallagher Group and the National Trust at
Ightham Mote.
