If you’ve walked past the main church entrance at Christmas time you might have noticed our tree sitting by the wall, cut up and ready for its next chapter. Since the Middlewich Council tip closed, we’ve found a much better way to say goodbye to our festive centerpiece: the Big Christmas TreeCycle Appeal.
It works a treat! We register our tree with ‘ Just helping ‘ and a few days after it goes out, their team swings by to whisk it away for recycling.
The 2026 Results: A Colossal Impact
Our local tree was part of a massive nationwide effort. The totals are finally in, and the impact is staggering:
-
£1.85 Million Raised: Funding vital care for 150+ charities across the UK.
-
89,000 Trees Recycled: Helping the planet while helping people.
-
A Community Effort: Powered by 67 charity partners and over 4,000 volunteers.
We are so proud to support a scheme that turns our old church tree into support for those in need. It’s a simple act that joins us to a much bigger story.
