ST Barnabas’ Tree-Cycle fundraising initiative offers a simple, eco-friendly way for people across Lincolnshire to recycle their Christmas trees, while supporting local hospice care.

St Barnabas has launched This year's Tree-Cycle fundraising initiative
For those who have purchased a real Christmas tree this year, you can register your tree for a donation with St Barnabas, so it can be recycled or replanted sustainably in the New Year.
For a suggested donation of £22, which could cover the cost of a St Barnabas staff nurse for one hour, the team will collect your tree, chip it and recycle it.
At a time when the hospice is facing financial difficulties, this festive initiative raises crucial funds to support the provision of end-of-life care and support across Lincolnshire.
A team of wonderful volunteers and corporate supporters will be travelling across the county to collect preregistered Christmas trees, between Wednesday, January 7 and Monday, January 12, 2026.
Trees will be recycled using chippers across the county and potted trees will be replanted locally. The chippings produced can be used for biomass boilers, bedding for farmyard animals, for use in agricultural fertilisers, or they can be turned into mulch for gardens.
