Primrose Hospice's popular Treecycle campaign is set to return, offering a hassle-free way to dispose of Christmas trees.

The initiative, now in its third year, allows residents to have their real Christmas trees collected from their homes in exchange for a donation to the hospice.

The collection will take place from January 11 to January 13 and will cover a range of postal areas including B60, B61, B80, B96, B97, B98, B45, WR9, as well as Alvechurch, Feckenham, and Inkberrow.

Hannah Isaac, a fundraiser at Primrose Hospice, said: "We are really excited about this Winter's Treecycle campaign!

"We have been blown away with the amount of support in previous years and are hoping this one will be bigger and better than ever!

"So please bear us in mind when you aren't quite sure what to do with your tree!

"The Primrose Elves are more than happy to help!"

All proceeds from the Treecycle campaign will support the hospice's services, which cater to patients with life-limiting illnesses and their families.

To register for the collection, visit the Primrose Hospice website or call 01527 889796.

Primrose Hospice operates as an independent charity, requiring over £1.95 million annually to provide its services, with only 14.6% of its funding sourced from the Herefordshire & Worcestershire ICB.
