Christmas tree recycling under way – with a chance to help children’s hospice

Guest column – Time for an Epiphany in the UK

Andy Winter on The Level

Christmas tree recycling is under way at dozens of sites across Brighton and Hove – along with a hassle-free scheme to have your tree collected for a donation to a children’s hospice.

The Christmas tree recycling sites operated by Brighton and Hove City Council started receiving trees between Christmas and the new year. For a full list, see below or click here.

The sites are open for trees until Monday 11 January and people are asked to remove all decorations and the pot before leaving a tree.

The council said: “Some of our collection sites have changed, so please check the latest information.

“Please only leave trees in the allocated sites – trees left anywhere else, including beside communal bins, will be fly-tipping and you could be fined.

“You can recycle real or artificial Christmas trees at our household waste recycling sites – or tips.

“Real Christmas trees can be chopped up and recycled in your garden waste if you’ve signed up to our paid-for collection service.

“We’re also teaming up this festive season with children’s hospice Chestnut Tree House and UK charity Just Helping for a special Christmas tree recycling scheme.

“For a donation, Chestnut Tree House will collect your Christmas tree from your home between Saturday 9 January and Tuesday 12 January, all done in a covid-secure way.”

To find out how, click here.

People can sign up through Just Helping to help raise much needed funds this Christmas, between now and Wednesday 6 January 2021.

    Every year this happens. The answer is to buy a tree with roots, and then put it outside, ready for next year.

      For somebody that is normally so articulate Christopher I think you should have put a little more thought into Your comment.
      I would like to take this opportunity to wish You and all of the other Commenters and those at Brighton and Hove News all the very best for 2021.

    For those that are fortunate enough to have a garden or allotment,it is not just a case of transplanting,although it would have a better chance than being put outside.
