Lewis-Manning Hospice Care’s Christmas tree collection and recycling service is back by popular demand and has been given the big thumbs up from Patron, Harry Redknapp

Lewis-Manning Hospice Care has launched its Christmas tree collection service supported by Katie Fox Estate Agents. The successful and popular service is in its 5th year and the community are urged to support the hospice once again by registering for their real Christmas tree collection online.

All Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch postcodes are covered, from BH1 – BH23, and collections will take place between Friday 6th and Saturday 7th January 2023.

Area Fundraiser Ruth Wright advised, “We are delighted to be able to help the local community again and offer this fantastic service that we know helps so many people avoid the faff of getting rid of their tree after Christmas. Not only is it a great service and fundraiser, but we love the fact we’re doing our bit for the environment by recycling the trees. Registering your tree online is easy, simply make a donation to Lewis-Manning Hospice Care on our website, specifying where you will leave your tree outside on the day of collection and we will take care of the rest!”

“Remember to book early as spaces go fast, so we recommend doing it ASAP to ensure you’re not left with a car boot full of needles and twigs and avoid disappointment! Bookings close on Tuesday 3rd January 2023.”

Lewis-Manning Patron Harry Redknapp said, “Sarn and I know what we’re doing with our Christmas tree this year, thanks to Lewis-Manning. I hope lots of other people in the local community also make a donation for their tree to be collected too! They’re such a worthy cause that help so many people in Dorset.  It’s fantastic to know that after Boxing Day we don’t have to worry about what to do with the tree.”

Katie Fox Estate Agents, Director, Katie Fox said, “When we were first approached by Lewis-Manning in 2021 to support this fantastic campaign it was an immediate YES. Not only was it about raising money to aid this wonderful charity but we loved that it was community based, which is whereas a business our hearts lie. Me and my team cannot wait to be part of it again this year and working alongside the amazing Lewis-Manning Hospice Care fundraising elves and the other fantastic businesses who volunteer their time to help the charity.”

Ruth continued, “We are also very kindly supported by Eco Sustainable Solutions who will be recycling all the trees that we collect and many other local businesses who have offered their help and support again this year.”
