Christmas Treecycle

Support your local NHS, recycle your Christmas tree! 🌲

This festive season, make a difference in your community by recycling your Christmas tree with us! When you sign up and donate, we’ll come to your door to collect your tree for recycling. Not only will you be helping the environment, but your contribution will directly support the local NHS services and enhance hospital grounds with the recycled chippings.

Key dates:

• Registration opens: Saturday, 1 November 2025
• Registration closes: Wednesday, 7 January 2026
• Tree collection dates: 6 – 11 January 2026
  If you’re not home, don’t worry! Just leave your tree at the front of your house, and we’ll collect it.

We’re collecting from the following postcodes:

IP14, IP24, IP27, IP28, IP29, IP30, IP31, IP32, IP33, CO10 and CB8.

Your support will really help make a difference:

We suggest a minimum donation of £10 for each tree, with all donations going directly to enhance the services of the West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust. Here are just some ways in which your donation could help:

– £10 could help purchase a distraction toy for our patients on our Rainbow Ward.

– £30 could help buy a pedal exercise bike, helping patients with their rehabilitation after hip surgery.

– £50 could help purchase a memory box, helping to create precious memories for loved ones after the loss of a baby.

– £198 could buy all the patients on one of our wards a Christmas Present, helping to bring joy during the festive period.

Volunteers needed!

We need YOUR help to make it happen! We’re looking for:

Volunteer drivers and vans (ideally Luton vans) to help us collect trees.

If you can help (or know someone who might), please get in touch by emailing fundraising@wsh.nhs.uk or calling 01284 713466.

Treecycle bookings are now closed. Our volunteers are busy organising collections taking place between 8–11 January. If you’ve already registered, there’s nothing more you need to do. Thank you so much for supporting My WiSH Charity and your local NHS services.
