Christmas Tree Recycling Scheme FAQ

Please leave your Christmas tree at the front of your house by 7pm on Monday 4th January 2027. Please leave it somewhere obvious - if we cannot see your tree when we arrive at your property we might miss you out!

We don’t need to see you in order to collect your tree. Just leave the tree outside your house and we’ll take it away!

Unfortunately, it is not possible to book a particular time or day for us to collect your tree. We are relying on our incredible volunteers who have generously offered to cover all of Nottinghamshire. We will collect trees from early morning on Tuesday 5th January to Sunday 17th January.

With hundreds of registrations there might be one or two trees missed. Don't worry, if you think we've missed you out, please feel free to contact us, and we'll happily come along to collect your tree.

No problem, just email hello@nottinghamhospitalscharity.org.uk and we can double check your address is on our list.

All trees are being sustainably recycled by one of our generous Nottinghamshire-based partners.

You can cancel your collection by emailing us at hello@nottinghamhospitalscharity.org.uk. Unfortunately we are not able to refund you if you have to cancel.

All donations will be put towards the Nottingham Hospitals Charity ‘general fund’. This means that the money will not be allocated towards a specific ward or department, but will instead be available for any part of the four Nottingham hospitals who apply for a grant. Our grants application process is really rigorous, so you can rest assured the donations will always be used for something positive and important for staff, patients and their families. Read more about the impact of your donations here.

Fantastic! Please email hello@nottinghamhospitalscharity.org.uk for more information about how you get involved, or visit our Volunteer page.
