Our merry team of Farleigh Elves will be back from 8 – 11 January 2027 to collect and recycle your real Christmas trees.
Our friendly team will pick up your tree directly from your doorstep and take it to our Christmas tree hub where it will be chipped and recycled. It’s easy, eco-friendly, and every pound raised helps us provide compassionate care across mid Essex.
Register by 4pm on 5 January
Help us make it to half a million pounds!
We would be so delighted to hit the half million mark in 2027 – so please donate and register your tree today, and help us turn chipped trees into hospice care in your local area.
