When you book your Real Christmas Tree Collection with The Kirkwood, you will be helping our incredible nurses, doctors and healthcare professionals care for patients, carers and families across Kirklees, ensuring they receive the best quality of care when faced with a diagnosis of a life-limiting illnesses right the way through to receiving end of life care at home, care homes or on our In-Patient Unit in Dalton.
With your help, we'd love to increase the number of trees collected. As we approach another year of piney fresh smells and recycling, we'd like to introduce you to the kind sponsors of this year's Christmas Tree Collections, FMG.
During our 2023/24 we were joined by a group of enthusiastic tree collectors from FMG's offices in Bradley, Huddersfield. Donning the high viz, and hitting the road with gusto, collecting all kinds of variations of trees including a singular trunk with no branches.
This year, thanks to the generous support of our sponsors at FMG, we are poised to significantly raise the profile of our collections, expanding our advertising with two new collection postcodes added for 2025 and increasing our fleet of vans FMG generously gifted us the use of 5 vans over four days and will provide a corresponding increase in the number of volunteers from their offices. Additionally, FMG has offered their offices as a central hub for all our volunteer tree collectors before they embark on the task of locating your trees. - we are so grateful for this partnership and can't wait to hit the road with them in January 2025!
During January we will be collecting real Christmas trees throughout Kirklees for recycling, depositing them at our many drop-off locations where our tree surgeons and chippers will be waiting to turn your pre-loved real Christmas tree into natural path chippings in a country park or even create new habitats for local wildlife. It is a simple and efficient way to help the environment and support your local hospice too.
The Kirkwood Christmas Tree Collections are kindly sponsored by...
