DREADING the thought of lugging your Christmas tree to the tip next week?
There is still time to sign up for the St Luke's Hospice Christmas tree collection service.
In return for a donation, St Luke's volunteers will collect and recycle your Christmas tree.
Last year, 2,652 trees were collected in just four days, raising more than £27,000 for the hospice.
Andy Bailey, corporate partnerships manager for St Luke’s Hospice, said: “Nobody enjoys the arduous task of chopping up the tree and taking it to the tip with the inevitable pine needles going all over the car.
"So the Christmas tree collection is a great way of reducing your stress and supporting our charity at the same time.
"All trees are recycled and turned in to woodchips which are then used in local country parks, so the scheme is great for the environment too."
Households across Northwich, Winsford, Middlewich and Holmes Chapel can register for the service by noon on Tuesday, January 7, by visiting charityxmastreecollection.com
